Coe was certainly a controversial figure, but I’ll also acknowledge that he definitely played a huge role in my exposure to country music when I was a kid back in the 1970s. That’s not an endorsement of the behavior that earned him that reputation. #MusicSky www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...

This year’s lineup. Link in the accompanying post on how you can help keep Saturdays in Saxapahaw free.

Released 31 years ago today. The first song I remember hearing from Wilco was “Casino Queen” which I recall seeing the video for on MTV’s 120 Minutes. I have a cassingle of it somewhere that I picked up for free at one of the early HORDE festivals. - Jonathan #MusicSky #Wilco

Must hear radio. Be sure to tune in. #MusicSky #Yallternative

Sad to share news of the passing of Jon Dee Graham. I feel fortunate to have seen him a few times over the years, the first of which was with The Resentments during SXSW in Austin in 2001. www.statesman.com/entertainmen...

I had the honor of seeing him perform at the Hole in the Wall in Austin during the one & only SXSW I ever attended in 2001 which was a #Guitartown field trip of sorts. Much love to all his family, friends & fans. - Jonathan #MusicSky #ChipTaylor

1/ Guitartown turned 27 yesterday. In 2008 the original email list became a ghost town as the majority of the members began posting on FB. The founder, Ali Williams created a Guitartown FB group as well but the heyday was over & has never returned.

Pleasantly surprised to hear “Abe Lincoln” by the Backsliders mentioned when the Flamin’ Groovies come up in discussion during this episode. #MusicSky #TheBacksliders

Excellent way to start the day. #MusicSky #UncleTupelo
