Welcome to Episode 57 of The Story Behind the Tunes. Today's show has really no theme but it's getting tougher to find tunes now. I still have lots of tunes to go but I've now categorized my tunes in alphabetical order to make it easy for me to see what I still have left to do. Please do me a favour and tell your friends & neighbours about my podcast. That would be so kind of you.
I'm really proud of a new venture I've undertaken. I've put together a (TV) show on YouTube called Calvin Vollrath's Fiddle Jubilee. I'm actually playing music with special guests and you get to watch us..... Tell all your friends about it. The guests in episode 1 are Mark Sullivan & Patrick Bell. I hope you watch it. Here's the link to watch it. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLjYOs9se8QGf8jKCIecTOEAy-4VdxJrNu
It would be greatly appreciated if you enjoyed this episode, to go to my website and have a look at my CDs, MP3 downloads, sheet music and so much more. I'm trying to keep the wolf away from the door and any sales do help. Thank you. www.calvinvollrath.com

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
