The audience for country music in the years following the World War II was predominently male and many of the records were destined for the juke boxes that thrived in the bars and watering holes where this working class audience gathered. This week on the program we'll sample some classic honky tonk music from the late 1930s until today. We'll hear Kitty Wells, Hank Snow, Buck Owens, Webb Pierce and of course, Hank Williams. We'll also hear more contemporary tunes from The Byrds, Emmylou Harris and Asleep at the Wheel. Let's go Honky Tonkin' … this week on The Sing Out! Radio Magazine.

When I was a kid, except for my birthday and Christmas, Halloween was my favorite holiday. It was the day when my friends and I could freely wander the neighborhood playing pranks that seem tame today - we soaped car windows, threw toilet paper, rang doorbells and threw dried corn. This week we'll listen to some of my favorite music which reminds me of those late October nights full of tomfoolery. We'll hear Steeleye Span, Fairport Convention, Archie Fisher, Dave Fry and many more. So, turn down the lights, light a candle or two and enjoy Halloween … this week on the Sing Out! Radio Magazine.

This week we present an encore of Under the Covers: classic performances of songs not written by the performer. There was a time when the occupation of songwriter did not automatically include singer in the description. Usually a songwriter wrote the song and then it was performed by a singer. This began to change in the 1950s and singer-songwriters became common in the 1960s. As songwriters began to perform their own compositions, the era of the Brill Building was coming to a close.We'll hear Bob Dylan, The Flatlanders, Los Lobos, Dawn McCarthy & Bonnie “Prince” Billy and many others. Under the Covers, 2022 … this week on the Sing Out! Radio Magazine.

On the program we will listen this week to music in honor of Black History Month. In 1926 Carter G. Woodson, a noted African American historian, educator and publisher, introduced Black History Week.

We'll listen to music from Rhiannon Giddens, Dom Flemons, Irma Thomas, Buffalo Nichols, Odetta and many others. We'll concentrate on the rich textures of African American popular music … this week on The Sing Out! Radio Magazine.
