Welcome to another episode of the Old Dingy Jukebox. Hop on board for another trip through the shelves of The Old, Dingy Jukebox, with an eclectic hour of gospel, blues, early country, western swing, bluegrass, jazz, conjunto, fingerstyle guitar and roots music from the 1920s through the present day.
In this episode, host Christian Gallo spins everything from fiery New Orleans gospel and postwar Texas blues to California country, bebop, western swing and bluegrass, with a few unexpected detours into Swedish honky-tonk and
vintage Pakistani electric guitar music. The records travel from New Orleans, Houston and San Antonio to Hollywood, Bakersfield, Chicago and San
Francisco, mixing old 78s and 45s with a handful of more recent recordings carrying on the traditions of American roots music.
