This week’s episode of Swing ’n’ Country features long-time Nashville session man Charlie McCoy. Best known for his harmonica playing, McCoy also plays guitar, drums, trumpet and who knows what else. He worked with many of Nashville’s finest musicians for more than 40 years. He’s now living in Florida, 84 years old. The Charlie McCoy set is the last of the day, including songs from Tom T. Hall and Roy Orbison.
The rest of the show is chock full of entertaining country style music. I like to drop names - so if you tune in to KBOO 90.7 from 6-9 AM on October 18th, you may hear any or all of the following: Pat Donohue, The Sweetback Sisters, Guy Clark, Asleep at the Wheel, Pam Tillis, Jimmy Buffet, Jeanne Pruett, Bobby Bare, Loretta Lynn, Claude King, Dawn Sears, Ray Charles (singing Buck Owens’ Crying Time), Judy Collins, Ernest Tubb, Suzy Bogguss, Alan Jackson, The Davis Sisters and Danny O’Keefe. My name’s Will Selzer. I’ll see you there!
