Air Week: June 8-14, 2026 Chuck Berry, Pt. 1 – 1955-56 Chuck Berry has been called the “Father of Rock n’ Roll” and with good reason. He took the blues of T-Bone Walker and B.B. King, the guitar riffs of Carl Hogan and mixed it with the fiddle and Western Swing music of Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys. Then he rolled it all into one big sonic blast. Rhythm & Blues become Rock n’ Roll when Chuck Berry began writing songs aimed at teenagers, finally granting them their own music. The “Juke In The Back” presents part 1 of a 3 part feature on Chuck Berry’s early career. This week, Matt The Cat explores Chuck Berry’s first full year of recording for the legendary Chess Records in Chicago. We’ll look at his recordings from his first session, held in May, 1955 to his fourth session from April, 1956 and everything in-between. Some of the titles you’ll know by heart, like “Maybellene,” “You Can’t Catch Me” and “Roll Over Beethoven,” but others might be new to your ears, like the eerie “Down Bound Train” and the very bluesy “Wee Wee Hours.” Chuck Berry defined Rock n’ Roll guitar and his influence is felt every time some one picks up a guitar with the intention of tearing the house down. Next week, we’ll finish up 1956 and begin 1957. LISTEN BELOW
By special request, I discuss the medicinal properties of tobacco, most of which are topical. Tobacco is a powerful herb that can be both useful and very toxic. Care and common sense must be exercised. And, while I do not advocate its recreational use, it is by no means a bad or evil plant. God made everything and declared it "good." While anything may be misused, nothing in nature should be demonized because of irresponsible or mis-use.Herbs that Heal(Catholic) Home Remedies to Forage and Growby Judson Carroll, Stephen Cunninghamhttps://sophiainstitute.com/product/herbs-that-heal/?oid=853&affid=281Also, I am back on Youtube Please subscribe to my channel: @judsoncarroll5902 Judson Carroll - YouTubeTune of the week:I Ain't Got Nobody on guitarI show you how to play a classic early jazz tune that has been a favorite at least since 1914! Emmett Miller had a hit with it in the 1920s, and Bob Wills in the 1930s, Louis Prima in the 1950s, David Lee Roth in the 1980s... and countless others. It has a great rhythm, which I enhance with some western swing style chords for a moving bass line. Then, I teach you a fingerstyle solo/break and give you some ideas to turn this tune into a real showstopper... this one is pure fun!!https://youtu.be/b4Qu2yGuJAcEmail: judson@judsoncarroll.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/southern-appalachian-herbs--4697544/supportRead about The Spring Foraging Cookbook: https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2024/01/the-spring-foraging-cookbook.htmlAvailable for purchase on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CRP63R54Medicinal Weeds and Grasses of the American Southeast, an Herbalist's Guidehttps://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2023/05/medicinal-weeds-and-grasses-of-american.htmlAvailable in paperback on Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C47LHTTHandConfirmation, an Autobiography of Faithhttps://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2023/05/confirmation-autobiography-of-faith.htmlAvailable in paperback on Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C47Q1JNKVisit my Substack and sign up for my free newsletter:https://judsoncarroll.substack.com/Read about my new other books:Medicinal Ferns and Fern Allies, an Herbalist's Guide https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2022/11/medicinal-ferns-and-fern-allies.htmlAvailable for purchase on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BMSZSJPSThe Omnivore's Guide to Home Cooking for Preppers, Homesteaders, Permaculture People and Everyone Else: https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2022/10/the-omnivores-guide-to-home-cooking-for.htmlAvailable for purchase on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BGKX37Q2Medicinal Shrubs and Woody Vines of The American Southeast an Herbalist's Guidehttps://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2022/06/medicinal-shrubs-and-woody-vines-of.htmlAvailable for purchase on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B2T4Y5L6andGrowing Your Survival Herb Garden for Preppers, Homesteaders and Everyone Elsehttps://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2022/04/growing-your-survival-herb-garden-for.htmlhttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B09X4LYV9RThe Encyclopedia of Medicinal Bitter Herbs: https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2022/03/the-encyclopedia-of-bitter-medicina.htmlAvailable for purchase on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B5MYJ35RandChristian Medicine, History and Practice: https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2022/01/christian-herbal-medicine-history-and.htmlAvailable for purchase on Amazon: www.amazon.com/dp/B09P7RNCTBHerbal Medicine for Preppers, Homesteaders and Permaculture People: https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/2021/10/herbal-medicine-for-preppers.htmlAlso available on Amazon: www.amazon.com/dp/B09HMWXL25Podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/show/southern-appalachian-herbsBlog: https://southernappalachianherbs.blogspot.com/Free Video Lessons: Herbal Medicine 101 - YouTube https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL7QS6b0lQqEclaO9AB-kOkkvlHr4tqAbs

We turn once again down that dark and dusty road in country music history—where temptation rides shotgun, regret sits in the back seat, and the Devil just might be waiting at the crossroads. From ballads of fear and heartfelt tales to outlaw confessions and modern Americana shadows, we'll be sharing tracks that flirt with fire, bargain with fate, and wrestle with salvation. The Devil, or if you will Satan, drops on by as our recurring country music theme this morning with selections from a host of favorites: BR5-49, The Louvin Brothers, Cowboy Copas, and Bob Wills as well as some off-brands like Ray Winfree, Kitty Lee and Powder River Jack, Jesse Floyd and a couple dozen others. They're all bemoaning the Devil's due. So pour a drink, dim the lights, and listen close… because in country music, when the Devil comes calling, he often sounds a lot like the truth. Tune in Friday mornings at 9am Pacific for yet another spoonful of your favorite Deeper Roots concoction.

Redbud trees and mockingbirds, honeysuckle and sassafras. For many a West Virginian, these are emblems of home.And pecan pie. You can't forget pecan pie. But you gotta be careful how you say it. How you pronounce those words — PEE-con puh-aye, y'un'stan' — tells us a lot. If you say, puhCAN … well, yeah, we'll still know what you're talking about, but we'll also know you're not one of us.How the Song Came to BeSuch Appalachian icons and shibboleths were much on Charlie Bowen's mind as he wrote this song recently, though the real impetus for “Pecan Pie & Sassafras Tea” was a story that his grandma told him a lifetime ago.Grandma Bowen — “Hattie” to everybody on Tyler Mountain — grew up on Eighteen Mile Creek along the edge of West Virginia's Mason and Putnam counties. Wise in the ways of the woods, she knew her weather signs and what roots to harvest for tonics in the spring and fall, what barks to brew for colds and headaches and other complaints.Hattie also knew her animals. She used to caution, for instance, about telling secrets around mockingbirds, because, well, those darn birds? why, they'd tell them!Tickled at the notion of a secret-telling mockingbird and imagining it making long-distance connections among different sets of lovers, Charlie set to writing this song.Melodic InspirationIts melody has Appalachian roots as well. As part of his current banjo quest, which now has been ongoing about 2 1/2 years, Bowen at one point came across the old tune called “Lazy John,” which comes from the playing of influential Monticello, Ky., fiddler Clyde Davenport.Davenport, who died in 2020 at age 98, once said that he in turn learned the tune from a radio broadcast in the mid-1940s, specifically a recording by Texas musician Johnny Lee Wills (brother of Bob Wills) and his western swing band.Now, Bowen has yet to bring that song into his repertoire (apparently John's not the only lazy one in this story!), but twists and turns in Davenport's playing inspired the melody that Charlie ultimately put together for “Pecan Pie & Sassafras Tea.” We hope you enjoy it.More from Charlie?If this little excursion has you thinking that a little more of Charlie's tunes would further enhance your Flood Friday, remember there's a randomized Bowen playlist in the band's free Radio Floodango music streaming service.Click here to reach the Charlie Channel.

Beneath Tulsa's modern surface lies a history scarred by violence and loss, the kind that leaves stories behind… and sometimes, something more. The 1921 Race Massacre remains one of the darkest moments in American history, its devastation still felt in the foundations of the city. And at the Tulsa Theatre—once linked to the very men who helped ignite that tragedy—people still experience paranormal activity tied to the building's painful past. Some even believe the famed tenor Enrico Caruso left more than an echo behind after his ill-fated visit to the city. At Cain's Ballroom, the home of Western Swing, legends say Bob Wills never really left the building, and then there's the Hex House—the events that unfolded there left a stain so deep that the empty lot itself is still known for strange sensations and an atmosphere people struggle to explain. Karla Cantrell is a Tulsa ghost tour host who spends her nights sharing the stories that refuse to fade. Together, we explore the tragedies that shaped the city and the hauntings that linger long after the headlines ended. This is Part Two of our conversation. #TulsaHauntings #1921RaceMassacre #TulsaTheatreGhosts #CainsBallroom #BobWillsGhost #HexHouse #TulsaHistory #HauntedOklahoma #ParanormalTulsa #GhostTourStories Love real ghost stories?

This week we conclude our two-part feature “It Don't Mean a Thing...” with a focus on Western swing. Western swing was developed in the dance halls of Texas and in sharp contrast to old-time string bands, Western swing bands employed many more members, including horn sections and multiple fiddlers. These were needed to fill these massive halls with music for dancing. We'll hear classics from The Light Crust Doughboys, Milton Brown and his Musical Brownies and Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys. We'll also hear new classics from Deborah Silver, Willie Nelson and Asleep at the Wheel. “Take Me Back to Tulsa” … this week on The Sing Out!

On this episode, Tony Brueski digs into the legends and lingering spirits of Cain's Ballroom, one of Tulsa's most iconic—and possibly most haunted—venues. Once the stomping ground of Western Swing legend Bob Wills, the ballroom still echoes with ghostly fiddle strings, phantom applause, and doors that lock all by themselves. But are these the signs of lingering spirits or the acoustics of an aging, memory-soaked hall? From the early days of oil-boom dance crowds to today's indie rock revival, Cain's Ballroom has never truly gone quiet. Join us as we explore its rich history, chilling encounters, and the unshakable feeling that someone—maybe everyone—is still listening from beyond the veil.

Bec and Justin discuss their favorites of the many songs Elvis recorded or performed titled after the women and girls they're about by name. From Caroline to Petunia, Marguerita to Marie and Annie to Kathleen, the tunes span the breadth of love, heartbreak and stories of unique musical characters. For Song of the Week, Justin takes the opportunity to jump from Elvis's messy but fun home recording of "San Antonio Rose" to explore a bit of the history behind Bob Wills' iconic western swing hit, examine contemporary perspectives that challenge our ideas of what the boundaries of oldies "country" music were, and how the Texas Playboys' work paved the way for rockabilly and rock and roll. Then Bec celebrates a belated Easter, spotlighting Elvis's heartfelt 1973 cover of Dottie Rambo's "If That Isn't Love," a gospel record all about Jesus's sacrifice, as well as explore a bit of the detail behind the friendship Elvis and Dottie shared and his deep appreciation for the music of her family group, The Rambos.

Another day, another tough challenge for our host. This week Ben gives it his best shot in a Bob Wills themed fashion contest. Bob Wills, known to have reigned over Tulsa's Cain's Ballroom along with his band The Texas Playboys during the 1930s and '40s, was and remains an influential icon of Western chic style. Hie reputation as a sharp dresser is so strong that this year they introduced a fashion contest during the annual Bob Wills Day celebration at the Oklahoma State Capitol. Ben is far from a ten-galloned fashionisto, but he is a bolo tie lover with a feel for style that can be best described as . . . marginally above average. Will that be enough to win the inaugural Bob WIlls fashion competition? Probably not, but let's find out. Also on this week's episode, the editors try their best to describe their own fashion styles, and podvents tells Mom where to find the sweetest cruise in town this Mother's Day.

Wills died many years ago, but the band's legacy lives on, currently led by Jason Roberts.

Later in the week the will head to Oklahoma City for Bob Wills Day at the Oklahoma State Capitol. Roberts joins the show this week to talk about his career path that led to this classic role.

Route 66—The Main Street of America— the first continuously paved highway linking east and west was the most traveled and well known road in the US for almost fifty years. From Chicago, through the Ozarks, across Oklahoma, the Texas Panhandle, up the mesas of New Mexico and Arizona, and down into California to the Pacific Ocean. The first road of its kind, it came to represent America's mobility and freedom—inspiring countless stories, songs, and even a TV show.Songwriter Bobby Troup tells the story of his 1946 hit “Get Your Kicks on Route 66.” Mickey Mantle says, “If it hadn't been for US 66 I wouldn't have been a Yankee.” Stirling Silliphant, creator of the TV series “Route 66” talks about the program and its place in American folklore of the 60s.Studs Terkel reads from The Grapes of Wrath about the "Mother Road," and the great 1930s migration along Highway 66. We hear from musicians who recall what life on the road during the 1930s was like for them, including Clarence Love, Woody Guthrie, and Eldin Shamblin, who played guitar for Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys.We travel the history of the road from its beginnings through caverns and roadside attractions, into tourist traps and bunko joints, through the hard times of the Dust Bowl, Depression and the “Road of Flight,” and into the “Ghost Road” of the 1980s, as the interstates bypass the businesses and roadside attractions of another era.Produced by The Kitchen Sisters and narrated by actor David Selby. The Kitchen Sisters Present is produced by The Kitchen Sisters (Nikki Silva & Davia Nelson) with Nathan Dalton and Brandi Howell. Part of Radiotopia from PRX, a curated network of podcasts created by independent producers.
Songs include: Sweet Georgia Brown, Little Brown Jug, Brown Eyes, Why Are you Blue?, Fine Brown Frame and The Little Brown Gal. Musicians include: Brother Bones, Rosemary Clooney, Glen Miller, Joe Turner, Bob Wills, Nick Lucas and Nellie Lutcher.
