This week's Backbeat has more of the same, but all different. We'll hear a spiritual group, The Southern Sons, perform a rather bizarre version of a WWII hit, pop and country singer Kay Starr shows her jazz roots, Slim Gaillard teaches us some crapshooter's jive and John Prine revives a Jim Reeves hit. All this and more rounded out by Howlin' Wolf, The Drifters and Frankie Lymon make for a fun hour of vintage music
Backbeat is also available in a 56 and 58 minute versions in three separate files if you want breaks. I am happy to provide custom station IDs, promos and liners. Email Lorne@Backbeatradio.com or visit www.backbeatradio.com for more information.
