Sure, in 1982, George may have “Gone Troppo” … but who could’ve guessed that some 43 years later, his old pal Ringo would have “Gone Conttro”?
That’s right! Buckle your buckles, scoot those boots, and pour out’cher ten gallon hats, because this week the Twangin’ Two dish deep not just on Ringo’s new Nashville-infused release, “Look Up”, but they Look Back on their own Americana and country music roots.
Join us as we hit the open highway with our radios tuned to Tom T. Hall, Dave “Curley” Dudley, and Dick Butkus, and along the ride we ask:
🌿 Who got higher at Poplar Creek in the 1980s: Willie Nelson, or T.J.’s mom?
🐂 True or False: Tony’s first concert was Alvin and the Chipmunks at the opening night of Coyote Ugly Saloon?
👯 Is Ringo’s “Can You Hear Me Call” featuring Molly Tuttle the greatest solo Beatle duet since Macca’s “Ivory and Ivory” with Hamish Stuart?
