This Time

The current standard-bearer of the Bakersfield Sound releases his fifth album on March 23, 1993. It ends up being Dwight Yoakam's best-selling album to date -- triple platinum. The album peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart. And, in my book, "Ain't The Lonely Yet" ranks right up there with the other greatest country songs of all time. #dwightyoakam #thistime #country #classiccountry #bakersfieldsound #cowpunk #honkytonk #music #musicsky…

"Glen's prominence with an ever-growing UK following at this time, is reflecting well for this album, since I'd last chanced upon it during my birthday week last year in 1973."

The Cherokee Cowboy

b. January 12, 1926. One of the “classic” voices of country music, Price was also one of its most progressive innovators. Country music was famous for ages for its “2/4″ beat until Price came along. He created the “Ray Price 4/4 beat” and made country music accessible to millions of new fans.

Rock my world, drag me out on the floor
Dance with me 'til I can't dance anymore
One-step, two-step, get in a line
I gotta find a way to make you mine
Rock my world, woo!

Hey well, everybody'd like to have what I've got
I can cool 'em down when they're smolderin' hot
I'm the fireman, that's my name
They call me the fireman, that's my name.

The Fireman
