Send us Fan MailLong before Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson got credit for starting outlaw country, Johnny Cash was already living it. This episode of Once Around the Country traces how a poor farm boy from Arkansas, born with only initials for a name, became the man behind one of the most legendary live albums ever recorded.The episode covers Johnny's growing outlaw reputation, his arrests, his drug use, and the empathy he developed for the men he met behind bars. That empathy led to a dream he chased for over a decade: recording a live album inside Folsom State Prison. Record executives thought it was a terrible idea. Johnny thought it might save his career.On January 13, 1968, Johnny Cash walked into Folsom State Prison alongside June Carter, the Statler Brothers, Carl Perkins, and his backing band the Tennessee Three. He recorded a concert that revived his career and became one of Rolling Stone's top 500 albums of all time.In This Episode:Why Johnny Cash wasn't actually born "Johnny"The tragedy that shaped his childhoodHow Sun Records changed his careerThe surprising reason he always wore blackJohnny Cash's arrests and drug strugglesWhy Folsom Prison became his greatest performanceHow Merle Haggard's life changed after seeing Johnny performWhy At Folsom Prison still ranks among the greatest live albums ever madeThis episode is sponsored by: Dignity Memorial Reed Animal Hospital Bio:Johnny Cash (born J.R. Cash, February 26, 1932 – September 12, 2003) was an iconic American singer, songwriter, and musician. Known as "The Man in Black," he blended country, rockabilly, rock and roll, folk, and gospel.

On this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with pianist Floyd Domino for a conversation about Western swing, boogie-woogie, jazz, musical identity, and a career spent supporting some of the most important artists in music.Floyd talks about beginning piano lessons at five years old, moving from classical study into jazz, and developing the unusual independence that allows his left hand to establish the foundation while his right hand tells the story. We discuss the pianists who influenced him, including Count Basie, Oscar Peterson, Moon Mullican, Jerry Lee Lewis, Al Stricklin, Pete Johnson, Jay McShann, Hank Jones, Ralph Sutton, and Kenny Barron.We also trace Floyd's path into Asleep at the Wheel, which began with an unexpected audition after a period of playing bars in Montana. Floyd explains how his jazz background helped move the band further toward Western swing and how musicians including Al Stricklin, Eldon Shamblin, Johnny Gimble, Ralph Mooney, and other pioneers taught his generation to respect tradition while still developing an individual voice.Floyd shares stories from his work with Waylon Jennings and George Strait, including his decision not to study George Strait's earlier records before entering the studio. Instead, he chose to trust the reason he had been hired and bring his own musical personality to the sessions. We talk about the responsibility of a sideman, the challenge of staying out of the bass player's range, and the advice he received that a musician's real job is to make everyone else in the band sound better.Our conversation also explores Floyd's children's recordings, beginning with the Beatles-inspired Baby Road. He recalls recording at Jack Clement's Cowboy Arms Hotel and Recording Spa, being told that the project needed a bass player, and discovering that the available musician was Edgar Meyer. Floyd also discusses working with members of The Crickets and forming the Floyd Domino All-Stars with musicians including Emily Gimble and Danny Levin.Key TakeawaysFloyd believes the first requirement of Western swing is that it must genuinely swing.Musical identity matters as much as technical accuracy; the pioneers encouraged younger players to absorb the tradition without becoming imitations.Floyd's two-handed piano style depends on watching the patterns in his left hand while listening closely to the melodic ideas in his right.His jazz background helped bring a stronger swing influence into Asleep at the Wheel.Floyd entered his George Strait sessions determined to sound like himself rather than copy the pianist from an earlier record.A good sideman listens for what is missing, stays out of other musicians' way, and works to make the entire band sound better.The children's album Baby Road began as a way to present strong melodies simply, without allowing arrangement or ego to overwhelm the songs.Music from the EpisodeThe Mess Around - Floyd DominoBob's Breakdown - Asleep at the WheelHouse of Blue Lights - Asleep at the WheelAce in the Hole - George StraitI Will - Floyd DominoAbout the PodcastThe Bandwich Tapes is a music interview podcast hosted by Brad Williams.

Sometimes dreams only come true when you build them yourself. For Chris Johnson, that philosophy has defined a remarkable career spanning decades in the music industry. Now, after years spent creating opportunities for other artists while quietly honing his own craft, Johnson is stepping back into the spotlight with his powerful new single, "Better Days Ahead," out June 26 2026, and  the first release from his forthcoming album, Tales From The Cowboy Palace.Born and raised in the rural community of Lakeside in San Diego County, California, Johnson grew up balancing life between Future Farmers of America, horseback riding, surfing and skateboarding. Raised among cattle, rodeos, and wide-open spaces, he proudly identifies as an "urban cowboy"—someone who may live in the suburbs but carries a rural spirit at heart.Chris Johnson is a California-born singer-songwriter, musician, entrepreneur, and self-described urban cowboy whose career spans performance, production, sound engineering, venue ownership, and artist development. Raised in Lakeside, California, Johnson has spent decades immersed in the music industry while continuing to write songs rooted in real-life experiences. His upcoming album, Tales From The Cowboy Palace, showcases his distinctive blend of traditional Country storytelling and hard-earned authenticity.Music was woven into Johnson's life from the very beginning. With a mother, aunts, and grandfathers who were all musicians, his passion for songwriting and performance came naturally. By the age of twelve, he was already playing guitar and singing alongside his mother at schools, county fairs, senior centers, and community events. Influenced by legends such as Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Merle Huggard, George Jones, John Denver, and Pete Seeger, Johnson developed a deep appreciation for storytelling through song.As a teenager, he played in school bands before forming his own country rock group. During college, he fronted a local band called Border Tones before pursuing solo performances throughout Southern California. His journey eventually led him to Los Angeles, where he attended Musicians Institute and joined a booking agency that sent him across the country performing corporate events and hotel engagements.While the experience sharpened his skills as a performer, Johnson ultimately felt pulled toward creating music of his own."I really wanted to get back to doing my own music," Johnson recalls. "I didn't even have a house—we were just in band houses and hotel rooms all the time."Back in Los Angeles, Johnson built an impressive behind-the-scenes career, running sound for legendary venues including the Whisky A Go Go and the Roxy, managing backline operations for FM Station. Also, touring as guitar tech for John Fogerty, Styx, Government Mule, Lisa Marie Presley, Chaka Khan and System of A Down. While also performing demo vocals, composing commercial jingles, and providing voiceover work. He also launched his own equipment company, Hollywood Studio Rentals, Valley Production Storage and Drum Paradise LA before eventually purchasing the very Country music venue where he frequently performed—the famed Cowboy Palace.Through every chapter of his career, songwriting remained a constant. Now, Tales From The Cowboy Palace serves as the culmination of a lifetime of experiences, offering listeners an authentic collection of songs centered around perseverance, freedom, fatherhood, motorcycles, hard work, and redemption. Backed by his band, The Hollywood Hillbillies, Johnson delivers a modern Country project enriched by decades of musical influences and real-world experiences.Lead single "Better Days Ahead" stands as a heartfelt anthem for dreamers, workers, and anyone pushing forward through adversity."It's about working my ass off when I had nothing," Johnson says. "Dreaming of giving a better life to my wife and kids."Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

With Brandon's upcoming solo album Thrasher just around the corner, Derek and Jimmy break down the newly released trailer, discuss its striking imagery, and explain why this project already feels different from anything Brandon has released before. From classic cars and dusty highways to small-town diners, county fairs, and the familiar backdrop of Mount Nebo, the trailer paints a picture of the Utah Brandon Flowers remembers growing up. Derek and Jimmy connect the visual callbacks to Pressure Machine, discuss Brandon's relationship with Nephi, and explore why Thrasher feels like an even more personal continuation of that story.

If you've never listened to traditional country music, this episode serves as a roadmap for understanding the storytelling, emotion, and authenticity that appear to be at the heart of Thrasher. Along the way, Derek shares stories from growing up in Nephi, working at a local truck stop, discovering country music, traveling throughout the Southwest with his father, and why experiencing different cultures makes both music—and life—more meaningful. Whether you've already embraced Brandon's new direction or you're still unsure what to expect, this episode is designed to prepare you for the journey before Thrasher arrives.

Rhett Miller has spent more than three decades as the frontman and principal songwriter of the Old 97's, while also building an acclaimed solo career as a musician, author, and teacher. The Old 97's were recently honored with the Americana Music Association's Lifetime Achievement Award, with Rosanne Cash once describing their sound as "What if Waylon Jennings had gone punk, or The Clash gone country?" Rhett returned to Outpost in the Burbs in April 2026 for a solo performance in support of his tenth solo album, A Lifetime of Riding by Night.

Influenced by legends such as Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Merle Huggard, George Jones, John Denver, and Pete Seeger, Johnson developed a deep appreciation for storytelling through song.As a teenager, he played in school bands before forming his own country rock group. During college, he fronted a local band called Border Tones before pursuing solo performances throughout Southern California. His journey eventually led him to Los Angeles, where he attended Musicians Institute and joined a booking agency that sent him across the country performing corporate events and hotel engagements.While the experience sharpened his skills as a performer, Johnson ultimately felt pulled toward creating music of his own."I really wanted to get back to doing my own music," Johnson recalls. "I didn't even have a house—we were just in band houses and hotel rooms all the time."Back in Los Angeles, Johnson built an impressive behind-the-scenes career, running sound for legendary venues including the Whisky A Go Go and the Roxy, managing backline operations for FM Station. Also, touring as guitar tech for John Fogerty, Styx, Government Mule, Lisa Marie Presley, Chaka Khan and System of A Down. While also performing demo vocals, composing commercial jingles, and providing voiceover work. He also launched his own equipment company, Hollywood Studio Rentals, Valley Production Storage and Drum Paradise LA before eventually purchasing the very Country music venue where he frequently performed—the famed Cowboy Palace.Through every chapter of his career, songwriting remained a constant. Now, Tales From The Cowboy Palace serves as the culmination of a lifetime of experiences, offering listeners an authentic collection of songs centered around perseverance, freedom, fatherhood, motorcycles, hard work, and redemption. Backed by his band, The Hollywood Hillbillies, Johnson delivers a modern Country project enriched by decades of musical influences and real-world experiences.Lead single "Better Days Ahead" stands as a heartfelt anthem for dreamers, workers, and anyone pushing forward through adversity."It's about working my ass off when I had nothing," Johnson says. "Dreaming of giving a better life to my wife and kids."Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Welcome back to Aquarium Drunkard Transmissions with Jason P. Woodbury. There are certain artists who straddle the line between music and prose, between songwriting and music writing. Think of Ira Kaplan from Yo La Tengo, who spent his early years as a rock journalist, or the doomed Peter Laughner, or even Lester Bangs, who cranked out a couple of raucous singles on Ork Records in addition to his pioneering criticism.  Then there are the patron saints of this dual discipline: Patti Smith and today's guest, her longtime collaborator Lenny Kaye. Kaye's creative output is kaleidoscopic: he's a founding member of the Patti Smith Group, bringing his slashing guitar style to classic records like Horses; he curated the legendary rock & roll compilation Nuggets: Original Artyfacts of the First Psychedelic Era; he's produced records for artists like Jessi Colter, Allen Ginsberg, and Suzanne Vega; and he's written a number of books, including one about Waylon Jennings, Waylon: An Autobiography, and Lightning Striking: Ten Transformative Moments in Rock and Roll – An Insider's Exploration of the Crossroads That Shaped Music.  Lenny is with us today to discuss Goin' Local, his first proper solo album, out July 17 on Yep Roc Records. Cut with his longtime bandmate Tony Shanahan and featuring Lenny's longtime creative partner Patti Smith, Goin' Local brings a little country & western, a little garage rock, a little folk, and lots of psychedelic energy to the table. Kaye joined us to discuss the new record, his roots in science fiction fandom, getting mystical with Jessi Colter, the queen of outlaw country, and the time your humble host asked Lenny if he could sample one of his songs. Lightning is striking—it's time for Lenny Kaye on Transmissions. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The New Orleans band Tank and the Bangas have been public radio favorites since they won NPR's Tiny Desk Contest in 2017. Since then, they've built their considerable reputation on their high octane, dance-ready blend of R&B, hip hop, spoken word and pop. The Grammy-winning band has some new songs to play for us from their latest album, The Last Balloon. After that, we welcome Rodney Crowell into our studio, who helped create the genre known as alternative country. He's written #1 hits for himself and artists like Bob Seger and Waylon Jennings, as well as collaborating with Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Sheryl Crow and, most notably, Emmylou Harris. He joins us to tell some tales and give us a taste of his 2025 album, Airline Highway.  Setlist:  1. Tank and the Bangas - "Move"  2. Tank and the Bangas - "No Invite"   3. Rodney Crowell - "Rainy Days in California"   4. Rodney Crowell - "21 Song Salute"   5. Rodney Crowell - "Taking Flight" Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

When the room needs a respite from the band's frequent fare of loud and raucous tunes, Randy Hamilton and Danny Cox always have just what the doctor ordered.Friends since high school, these two seem to be able to read each other's mind when it comes to music. Just listen to how they make this 60-year-old Danny O'Keefe composition sound like something they themselves just wrote.As reported here earlier, O'Keefe, a Washington State folkster, wrote “Good Time Charlie's Got the Blues” in 1967, but its early trips to the recording studio were largely fruitless.Danny's own recordings of the tune in 1971 and '72 were generally ignored. But then the following year the song played a part in the turning point in another artist's career.When Waylon Did the SongThat's when country music star Waylon Jennings had started getting restless, wanting to wrestle creative control away from the slick, over-produced “Nashville Sound” establishment that he had grown tired of.The seminal Good Hearted Woman album, quickly followed by Ladies Love Outlaws and Lonesome, On'ry and Mean were Waylon's personal declaration of independence, establishing him as a prominent representative of the new “outlaw country” movement.Watching and listening from the sidelines, O'Keefe later said that Jennings' cover of “Good Time Charlie” on that third of those albums was his absolute favorite version of his own song, capturing the groove and swagger he had always intended.And O'Keefe's lyrics — about aging, watching friends drift away and using “pills to ease the pain” — perfectly fit the rugged, hyper-honest persona of the burgeoning outlaw movement.When Willie AnsweredA half dozen years later, Waylon's fellow outlaw Willie Nelson also took a turn with the tune, but his take of “Good Time Charlie's Got the Blues” gave it a much different vibe.On his 1979 collaborative album with Leon Russell, One for the Road, Willie treated the song as an intimate, jazz-infused acoustic prayer. In his characteristic style of singing slightly behind the beat, Willie captured the lyrics' quiet, lonely acceptance of sitting in an empty room after the party is over, much as Randy and Danny do in this rendering from a recent Flood rehearsal.For more on the history of this lovely tune, see this earlier Flood Watch article.Mid-Year ReportSo, we've reached the midpoint of 2026.

After 40 years together, the Southern California roots band Marley's Ghost shows no signs of slowing down — and their latest album proves it. Honky Tonk is a deep dive into the music that shaped them, featuring songs from Hank Williams, Waylon Jennings, and other giants of country music, recorded live in the studio with producer Larry Campbell. It's an album that smirks and stomps, carrying the weight of a lifetime spent in smoky bars and on stages across the country. Dan Wheetman, vocalist and founding member, sat down to talk about what it means to really live inside a song, how four decades of friendship shapes a band's sound, and why an older voice is sometimes exactly what a honky tonk tune needs.

Send us Fan MailCraig Fort stops by the show to discuss, music sobriety, inspiration and more. ***Lightning Stills isn't an album detailing the evils of alcohol. Instead, it's life stories while still in the moment. “I started this project as a way to keep me occupied and help me through getting sober,” vocalist/guitarist Craig Fort of Omaha's reigning outlaw country band explains.Aside from the obvious health benefits of quitting the sauce, his reason for quitting was far more personal. “Ultimately, I got sober for my family,” he confesses. “Once I had my first son, I started trying to stay away from the bar except for playing shows. My drinking stuck with me though and eventually took over. I realized I needed to get some help or my boys weren't gonna have a father anymore.”Though he has sworn off alcohol, the offending substance flows freely figuratively throughout the band's makeup. “The band name ‘Lightning Stills' is a character I created - a reference to white lightning moonshine stills,” Craig explains, about the eponymously named alter-ego, a rhinestone cowboy in the vein of Waylon Jennings and Johnny Paycheck. “Lightning Stills” alludes to the clear high proof, unaged corn whiskey that is made in a ‘moonshine' still. “When I first started, the ‘Lightning Stills' character was a bootlegger. I have some history of that in my family and that lifestyle appealed to me I guess. Even off the sauce I feel like I'm still trying to find the right potency for my brew,” he laughs.Lightning Stills is a venerated cast of Omaha musicians - a who's who of local artists of varying genres, all unified in a love for pure and unadulterated Outlaw Country. Originating in 2020, Craig (a hardcore, metal, and garage mainstay whose leads the post-rock mainstays Leafblower) first formulated the band with Omaha music icon and multi-instrumentalist Mike Friedman who had been playing country for decades. Pulling into their magnetic orbit a “good-timing odd bunch” that features guitarist Tom May, bassist Dan Maxwell, and drummer Javid Thunders, Lightning Stills was born. “We're a real sundry assortment,” he says. “Dan and I have been playing together in various projects for 15 years. The other fellas have played in folk, indie, garage, metal, etc. That's one thing that's always been nice in my experience about Omaha. You can have a bill with hip hop/metal/country, and everyone that comes out are friends and possibly play in other projects with each other as well.”Deciding it was time to record a full record after releasing a handful of tracks in 2020 and 2021, the self-titled debut started taking shape, and a caboodle of punk-infused Outlaw Country was born. “Coming from a small town, I grew up with the outlaws and ‘90s popular country that I couldn't escape,” he concludes. “My grandpa played in a country band. So in a sense, Lightning Stills is still just me playing music with my buds. We just aren't playing as loud.”****If you would like to contact the show Dauna@betertopodcast.comFollow us on Social MediaYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCX0ETs2wpOHbCuhUNr0XFTw?view_as=subscriberInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomSupport the podcast here: https://www.patreon.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedom©2026 Better To...Podcast with D.

As a musician, Tommy has many ties to Waylon Jennings, we'll chat about that (and there is a bonus episode with even more conversation around music, free for Patreon subscribers at patreon.com/whiskeylore ), and we'll talk about the development of the distillery, the use of two thumpers, the problem with high proof flavored moonshine, how moonshine and city hall got together, and Tommy with tap into plenty of stories. Enjoy this episode, that started out to be a Whiskey Flights episode, but we just had so much to talk about. Cheers! Drew

Waylon Jennings’ musical career began with tragedy. On tour as the bass player for his friend Buddy Holly, Waylon gave up his seat on the tiny plane that, just hours later, crashed, killing Buddy and three others. That experience alone nearly put an end to Waylon’s musical dreams. But he continued, persevering by doing only the things he wanted to do – which included hiding his pill stash from his roommate Johnny Cash, hiding his coke stash from the DEA, and creating a county/rock hybrid that refused to conform or even obey the law.

Back in the Tin Pan Alley (and Brill Building) days there were song-pluggers, and there were vocalists, and never the twain met, but this symbiotic relationship formed the successful division of labor for the great American capitalist record business. Whether they be based in NY, LA, or Nashville successful songwriters rarely had hits recording their own material. Hard to believe that it took Willie Nelson so many years to be recognized as his own best interpreter. Of course, that now seems ludicrous, given Willie's status as “national treasure”.  Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra and the like had their go-to writers and arrangers, Phil Spector, Don Kirschner and others kept their stable of regular creatives like Carole King and Gerry Goffin in little cubicles laboring to churn out dozens of standards weekly for their employer's contracted recording artists.  But, just like any actor worth his salt in Hollywood will tell you: “without good writing, you ain't got shit”Two of Country Music's most covered songwriters are being honored here today, singing for you in their own voices: Guy Clark, doing “That Old Time Feeling”, and Harlan Howard performing “Heartaches by the Number.” These are craftsmen, whose practical, raw boned approach to their art yielded glittering treasures. HARLAND HOWARD (1927-2002)Harland Howard wrote over 4000 songs, 100 of which made the top ten Country charts. He was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters and Country Music Halls of Fame. There are tribute albums of his songs by Buck Owens, Waylon Jennings and Wille Nelson. He wrote I Fall to Pieces for Patsy Cline, Busted, made famous by Ray Charles, and the monster hit - I got a Tiger by the Tail for Buck Owens. Here he is singing Heartaches by the Number, which a cursory dip into YouTube reveals covers by Ray Price, Dwight Yoakam, Guy Mitchell, Leon Russell, Paul Carrack and Kitty Wells, among others. There are no frills here, but I contend that hearing the voice of the man who created the song is a more personal experience, like someone reading you their diary.GUY CLARK (1941-2016)The ultimate example of an unsung (pun intended) man of influence is “Old No. 1,” the luthier's luthier, Guy Clark. His Texas home-workshop was the Austin epicenter of the Outlaw Country Movement that transformed Country Music. Watch the scene from the documentary Heartworn HIghway with Steve Earle and Rodney Crowell sitting around Guy's kitchen table, trading songs. Townes Van Zandt may have been the most elusive doomed romantic poet of that group, but it was Guy they studied with and trusted - the one they could depend on, the Zen Master of song.And, what songs! They are like short stories, full of vivid characters, evocative dialogue, and carefully observed detail. Songs like Desperadoes Waiting for a Train, L.A. Freeway, My Favorite Picture of You (for his late wife Susanna - the magnetic beauty patiently putting up with the Outlaw's shenanigans). Today, he favors us with That Old Time Feeling, a tune that insinuates itself into your consciousness through a stream of unforgettable images.

Nashville bassist Alison Prestwood joins Blake for a deep-dive hang that zig-zags through the kind of career that only makes sense in hindsight: a near-miss with Waylon Jennings, a pivotal run with Rodney Crowell, getting the call to jump in with Patti Loveless on a few days' notice, and why saying “no” at the wrong time can still be the right move. They talk shop on what it really takes to break in today (attitude, reputation, the bus factor, and yes… learn the number system), plus why studio work still has that magic when a whole band builds something together in real time. Also: a midlife detour into law school and practicing as an attorney before returning to music full-time, and a proper gear spiral, including her 1973 P-bass, vintage favorites, and why touring with Peter Frampton can actually be safer for great instruments than leaving them at home.
