Marty Garner - Harmonica On The Rural Route

 It`s been a while since I have posted anything, so I thought I`d post a few different things at once to make up for it. Here`s a mighty good harmonica pickin` LP. I don`t know anything about Mr. Garner, except to say he`s a good harmonica blower. If you like harmonica at all, download this LP!

The Phipps Family Sings About The Suffering, Crucifixion And Resurrection Of Christ

 The Phipps Family stuff seems to be one of the most popular of my posts. This is about my least favorite LP I have of them though. And the title is WAY too long. Haha! From the title, you know there`s not going to be any happy songs on this record. And, their delivery is practically identical to the Carter Family, they have a knack to make the funniest comic song sound somewhat morbid. Haha! Anyway... download and enjoy!

Golden Classics promo disc

 Here`s an odd one. A promo 45 for a music club. Most of you know I`m a Roy Acuff fan, so that`s why I bought this. Of course, as can be seen on the labels, there are also a few other country music legends on here too. Enjoy!

Justin Wilson - Truckin` With Justin Wilson

 Here`s a funny comedy record by the ole Cajun, Justin Wilson. How many people out there remember his cooking show that used to be on PBS?  I can`t believe they don`t show the show again! We should all contact PBS stations across the country demanding that they put it back on the air!

Sam & Annie with Lonnie Glosson

 Here is an oddity that I found. It`s a 45 recorded by Sam & Annie, which I have no idea who is. I bought it because the late, great harmonica player, Lonnie Glosson, is on it. Apparantly from the story on the record sleeve, they played at Jimmy Carter`s arrival in Washington, D.C. after he won election. Years ago it was common for candidates to employ hillbilly entertainment on the campaign trail, mostly in the south. I`d say this would have been about the last of this type entertainment at a political function on this level by a lesser-known type country artist. Nowadays, only a super-star would be hired for such an event. I actually have played at a political rally myself, on the county level for a distant cousin of mine.
At any rate, give this a listen for at least the harmonica by Lonnie Glosson.
Track titles are---
1. Honey-Dew Love
2. Jimmy Carter Special
