Throwback Thursdays: The Mavericks

In the late 90's I discovered a tex-mex country band called The Mavericks who were bordering on third-wave ska. They dropped an incredible album, Trampoline, in 1998. Still love these songs. Dig this cut, "Dance the Night Away" - compelte with a goofy supermarket video.

Throwback Thursdays: Jerry Reed

There's a specific time in the late 70's when country music dabbled in funk. Some great tunes from that era including this tale of a dude with a hot hand in a back alley craps game. Peep this and for more country-funk goodness from ol' Jerry, check out "Amos Moses".
