CLA Radio 02/09/18: Ernest Tubb

What:  Marking the anniversary of the birth of one the most beloved artists in the history of country music, Ernest Tubb.

Ernest Tubb songs, covers of Ernest Tubb songs, songs that Ernest Tubb covered, and so on — and a whole bunch of very entertaining biographical material courtesy of a 1987 CMT profile.

When: Friday, February 9, 2018; 6:00 PM Pacific/9:00 PM Eastern.

(We usually start later than the scheduled time, because Generalissimo’s Aftershow generally runs late.)

ConservativeLA Radio also repeats on Thursday night after the Aftershow, and on Sundays at noon Pacific time.

Where: Duane FM in the Hughniverse (subscription required).

Spotify playlist: Here.
