Eddie and I must think alike! (lol) Now if Eddie would have also played “Johnny Cash Is Dead And His House Burned Down” I’d have gotten a bit spooked!

Unfortunately major market Top 40 country radio couldn’t care less about a dinosaur from the distant past of country music (i.e. anything prior to Carrie Underwood’s triumphal entry). Looks like Jr. will wind up on the Americana charts along with his daughter Holly and nephew Hank III. At least his new videos earn a few airings on GAC and CMT.

Just think if there were terrestrial radio stations that specialized in playing new music from traditional country oriented new artists and all the legacy true country artists that have been off the charts for awhile. Hank Jr., Gene Watson, and The Gatlin Brothers could actually be getting some decent on-air spins right now! Oh well…

Took banjo lessons with Earl Scruggs years ago, for one thing.

And for those wanting to dig a little deeper, the Grascals’ familiarity with the rowdy side of country music is exemplified by their fine cover of Aubrey Holt’s “Tonight’s My Night To Howl” on their Long List Of Heartaches album, a song that makes Waylon & Co. look durn near respectable (“I’m gonna play loud music, gonna drink hard liquor, gonna chase wild women, tonight’s my night to howl”).
