Send us a textThis week This Is Vinyl Tap discusses the criminally underrated album by Pure Prairie League, 1972's Bustin' Out. Bustin' Out contains the band's most well known song, "Aime," a radio staple for the last 50 years. Oddly, while even the most casual of music listeners know the song, many would be hard pressed to name the band that performs it. As a result, Bustin' Out has been somewhat ignored, which is a shame, because it is a fantastic collection of country infused rock songs. The album's secret weapon is David Bowie's guitarist Mick Ronson, who provides string arrangements and, some (uncredited) scorching guitar.   While the band did move away from the rawer sound of their debut on Bustin' Out, the album is bit more mature and undeniably full of expert playing and fine, soulful vocals by front-man Craig Fuller that makes its influence on the alternative country bands of the early 1990's very apparent.  Visit us at www.tappingvinyl.com.

Truckload margins have been under pressure from rising costs and depressed rates. In this Talking Transports podcast, Craig Fuller, FreightWaves founder and chief executive officer, joins Lee Klaskow, Bloomberg Intelligence's senior transportation and logistics analyst, to share his insights about the state of the North American trucking market and the future of the industry. Fuller also speaks about the feasibility of electric and autonomous trucks technologies as well as his love for cab-over designs. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
