Tis the week before Xmas and nothing silly-season on Border Radio. It's business as usual for the mighty deputy team playing American roots music. Standout was bringing back Tim Buckley with "Get On Top" from 1972, if you want a dancing album over Xmas get down with "Greetings From L.A."
Playlist
Another helping of great American roots music to get you through the silly season without getting silly yourself. Particular respect for Tim Buckley's "Get On Top" from the great 1972 album "Greetings From L.A.". It's a dancing album if you need one.
