Mighty fine

A superb podcast for anyone interested in country music or roots music or whatever you want to call it. Otis does a great job in just letting the subjects flow verbally and the choice of some great subjects is inspired. Henneman, Carll, Cleaves, Gauthier..all wonderful choices and fascinating to listen to. It's FREE...what more reason do you need? Give it a spin.
