Hello friends! Music legend Ray Benson from Asleep At The Wheel is my guest for episode 1432! Ray just released his first reggae album, Swingin' And Skankin', produced by Doctor Dread and recorded in Jamaica, and it's available wherever you stream or download music. Go to raybenson.com for music, Asleep At The Wheel info, tour info, and more. Ray and I have an incredible conversation about making Swingin' And Skankin' in Jamaica and working with Tony Garnier (Bob Dylan) and legendary reggae drummer Sly Dunbar, Being on the first episode of Austin City Limits and opening ACL Festival every year (they'll be on at 12:55 on the Honda Stage today 10/4), 54 years of Asleep At The Wheel, Willie Nelson, Doug Sahm, Shep Gordon, Joe Gracey, "Take Me Home Country Roads", old Austin stories, co-founding HAAM, show business, and much more! I had a blast getting to know Ray. I'm sure you will too. Let's get down!
