Six String Hayride - Classic Country Music and Beyond, the Midwest's Finest Award Winning Music Podcast is completing our Decades in Country Music Series with Six String Hayride Podcast Episode 46, The 2000's: Johnny, June, and The Great Beyond. Johnny and June pass away in 2003 as Johnny's American Recording album series is cementing his musical legacy and bringing his music to a new generation. Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings, Chet Atkins, Loretta Lynn and Chuck Berry are among the Musical Masters who leave us, ending an era that started with The Carter Family in 1927. The future of Country Music is filled with brilliant options in every town. Clubs like Carol's Pub and Fitzgeralds in the Chicago area and musicians like The Waco Brothers, Dean Schlabowske, Jo Walston, and Chicago's Cowboy Crooner, Andrew Sa are just a hint at what Country Music is doing in the present. Look around your town and find the next groovy thing to listen to, invite your friends over for a listening party (I recommend anything from SUN Records, STAX Records, or this here podcast), find an unsuspecting youngster and tell them about Johnny, June, Willie, and Loretta, get a George Jones Flat Top Haircut, and keep spreading the good word of our unbroken circle.https://www.patreon.com/user?u=81625843

With tonight’s show being the last broadcast of June, and especially as it is also the last day of the month, it’s pretty clear that it needed to be a second quarter recap.

The material ranges from the fantastic power pop of Paint Fumes and Jagger Holly to veteran rockers such as Ian Hunter and The Waco Brothers. There’s some rootsy rock and roll from Tommy Stinson, Deer Tick and The Baseball Project.

Today's guest is punk rock pioneer, Jon Langford, a founding member of The Mekons, who were considered one the first wave punk bands from Britain.  We learn about Jon's melding folk and country music with punk music in The Mekons and several other side projects including The Waco Brothers, which he founded in Chicago after moving to the city in 1992.  We learn of how his music career was a surprise detour that materialized after The Mekons turned some record label heads while Jon and his at-school mates were simply having a blast thrashing about in the 1970's punk scene.  Between record labels and touring with The Mekons, Jon dusted off his paint brushes and found that he was able to make a bit of a splash as a visual artist.  Jon continues to perform and record music sporadically with The Mekons and he plays solo acoustic shows, while continuing to paint, with works in several high profile galleries. Steve and Catherine have a great conversation with Jon and we learn a great deal about his creative process, both as a musician and as a visual artist.

The Mekons, the Waco Brothers, Four Lost Souls, the Pine Valley Cosmonauts—those are just some of Jon Langford's bands, and he's an accomplished visual artist to boot. Since moving to Chicago from England almost 30 years ago, Langford has become one of the city's greatest assets, and during the pandemic he has performed constantly in support of small clubs and other good causes. He recalls the influence of reggae and country music on the early British punk scene, how the Mekons never were in a riot until they were, how the band took on Led Zeppelin, and how much he misses the late Wacos drummer Joe Camarillo. He's also performs two new songs JUST FOR YOU. Listen and enjoy.

Punk rock “was about how rules were made to be broken and making your own entertainment,” The Mekons’ Jon Langford said in 2004. The idea that punk meant choosing your own path and following your own muse has helped the punk band remain musically and conceptually provocative, and it gave him license to incorporate country, folk, reggae, pop, and glam into the music he has made with The Mekons, The Waco Brothers, The Three Johns, in side projects and on his own. And, it led to Christmas music. Jon Langford is the quintessential indie artist, working his music and art to put together a paycheck and body of work he can live with, and his Christmas recordings reflect that. Each comes from a situation where the marketplace and inspiration overlapped, and in those situations Langford and his co-conspirators on a project found ways to give the songs integrity. In our conversation, we talk about a children’s music project he was involved with, Wee Hairy Beasties, as well as an impromptu Waco Brothers’ Christmas song, and “Christmas Carol, Christmas Ray,” a reflection on the holiday season when he was growing up in Wales that he recorded with the Men of Gwent. Along the way, he mentioned the folk song “Green Grow the Rushes,” so we’ve included a version of it by The Singing Milkmaids, and because he mentioned Slade’s “Merry Christmas Everybody,” we finally get an opportunity to play it. The episode ends with Langford reading a revised version of “Twas the Night Before Christmas” written as a promo for Chicago’s Bloodshot Records, which has released his Waco Brothers’ albums. It’s excerpted in the episode, but here it is in its entirety.   Since his experiences in Newport in South Wales form a big part of this conversation, I’ve posted his video for “Christmas Carol, Christmas Ray”—which we talk about—and a clip of a Welsh holiday tradition that he only heard about as a kid but never saw with his own eyes. He couldn’t explain it, but here it is, with the singing in Welsh.

Jon Langford is an artist's artist. He's a member of the Mekons, Waco Brothers, The Three Johns, Men of Gwent and an accomplished solo performer and painter. With a new Waco Brothers album on the way (Going Down in History) and an urge for encased meats, Langford jumped in the backseat to perform a couple songs, enjoy a hot dog and fries and walk through his fantastic career, dating back to the 1970s. For this week's show, the Mazda 3 took the show to Ivy's Burgers, Hot Dogs & Fries in Edgebrook. It was kind of amazing.

As a founding member of the Mekons, Jon Langford has been making music since the 1970s, so we had a lot to talk about in this two-beer chat at Halyards in Brooklyn.  He covers his entire history, from his childhood in Wales, to art school in Leeds, to his migration in the '90s to Chicago, where he formed the Waco Brothers.  Now backed by his band, Skull Orchard, he's just released Here Be Monsters, his critically lauded sixth solo LP.  Langford also explains how he came to design labels for Dogfish Head Brewery, and reveals the greatest gig he's ever seen. facebook.com/jonboylangford drypaintsigns.com
