City [RealOne Player]
http://www.honkytonks.org/
Originally broadcast from July 2003 to September 2003,
this rather engaging
radio program explored the origins and development of
America's popular
music tradition in the first five decades of the 20th
century. Hosted by
NPR's Paul Brown, this website is designed to
complement this fine series,
and allow the musically curious visitor to listen to
each of the eleven
segments in the series. The segments include a number
of fine historic
performances (by such seminal musicians as Jimmie
Rodgers and Kitty Wells),
rare archive tape, and interviews with contemporary
musicians, including
Honeyboy Edwards, Taj Mahal, Alison Krauss, and Merle
Haggard. From the
site's main page, visitors can also elect to receive
email updates about the
program and find out exactly what a honky-tonk is. The
site is rounded out
by a special web-only program on the legendary Carter
Family and their
legacy in country music. [...]]
