Honky Tonk: Charlie Gillett's Radio Picks

by N/A

Overview

This fun set collects 25 tracks featured by Charlie Gillett on Honky Tonk, his influential show broadcast by Radio London, and the selections are wonderfully varied, mixing in sides like Joe South's "Games People Play," J.J. Cale's "Call Me the Breeze," Rosco Gordon's "No More Doggin'," Bill Doggett's "Honky Tonk" (the show's signature song), and a rare demo version of Dire Straits' "Sultans of Swing." ~ Steve Leggett
