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…

Alley Cat by Bent Fabric, released on Atco in 1962.

Bent Fabricius-Bjerre (7 December 1924 – 28 July 2020), better known internationally as Bent Fabric, was a Danish pianist and composer.

Bent Fabricius-Bjerre was born in Frederiksberg, Denmark. He started a jazz ensemble after World War II and founded a label, Metronome Records, in 1950. He released a series of ten inch albums on the Metronome label entitled 50 Years Of Evergreens in 1955, under the pseudonym Frank Barcley. However, he is best known for his 1961 instrumental "Omkring et flygel" (literally, "Around a Grand Piano") which became a hit in Denmark. The song was re-released worldwide under the name "Alley Cat" on Atco Records the following year - Wikipedia

Loved his soundtrack for the film Tænk på et tal aka Think of a number based on the excellent novel of the same name by Anders Bodelsen.

First sip is strangely tangy with spices melted into the caramel malt and herbs popping with some pine hops.

“Real country – plain and simple.”

George Strait releases his debut album on September 4, 1981. The record launched his legendary career and many call it a key album in the neo-traditional country movement that countered the pop-country trends of the time. George came 'round just in time.
