Three hours with a variety of country style music.

Today’s show features songs about Georgia, including the Georgia state song from Willie Nelson. The other musicians singing about Georgia are Trisha Yearwood, Jim Croce, Alison Krauss and of course Ray Charles.  It was Charles who sang "Georgia on My Mind" to state legislators when they adopted it as the state song in 1979.  Music by Hoagy Carmichael, lyrics by Stuart Gorrell.  I'll leave it up to you to say if "Georgia" is a person or a state or both in these songs.

Thanks for listening to KBOO and Swing'n'Country.  I’d like to thank everyone who supports KBOO’s annual Spring Membership Drive, though May 28th. Every year we count on you to help KBOO blossom and keep the spring bees buzzing.  I suggest that you click on the DONATE button on this page to give now.   Thank you!  Will
