If you’re new to my music or just interested in a nifty to place to literally hear about new Americana releases, check out the Ray Randall Reviews weekly podcast. Ray reviews two CDs on each show, playing five song snippets from each disc. He pairs up new records* from Americana artists as diverse as Slaid Cleaves and The Wailin’ Jennys or Merle Haggard and Neil Young.
Recently, Ray reviewed my CD Spotted Mule and Other Tales, along with “Laps In Seven”, the new disc from mandolin legend Sam Bush. (Can’t ask for better company than that.) Ray played pieces of my songs Still Walkin’, Spotted Mule, Highway 17, Takin’ Baby Steps, and Good God Man How Big a Car Do You Need?, giving the entire disc a very flattering review and awarding it “four bottlecaps”
(“Four bottlecaps” is very good, by the way. Check it out, and you’ll get the idea.) Click here to listen in to the episode.

* Yeah, I still call them “records”. I read a Tom Petty interview recently. I’m paraphrasing, but he basically said, “Calling it a CD is impersonal. It’s a record of what that song sounded like on that day in that space.” I like that.
