Volume 187: Texas Landscapes
Like I’ve mentioned before, my dad liked his cowboy music too. So, we’ll go back to a box set where we’ll pull out the fourth of its seven records.
The title of each of these sides is Deep in the Heart of Texas and Western Landscapes, hence the mashup title of this episode.
Four songs from side one were all big hits and reference our second biggest state. The selections from side two are lesser known but paint a beautiful picture of the old west.
So get ready to hear what is really Tumbling Tumbleweeds part 4 in Volume 187: Texas Landscapes.
More information about this album, see the Discogs webpage for it.
