Let me start by saying that I appreciate all the feedback I
have gotten from you concerning “The Music That Built Me Series” this year that
I have tied into my radio show. I might continue that into 2016 as it seems to
have worked really well, but we will see how that goes.
As of next Wednesday, we will be in the month of December,
which means…..Christmas Music…..With that said, Crazy Chucky’s Country Classic
Corner will be turning on a Yuletide curve as well, with four weeks of holiday
themed programming.
On December 2, the show will feature Country Music Hall of
Fame member Kenny Rogers, who has just released his sixth seasonal collection,
Once Again It’s Christmas. In September, upon the album’s release, I had a
chance to sit down and talk with him about the album – as well as his other
Christmas albums – all of which rank among my favorites. We’ll play a lot of
the new album, but also feature a lot of his holiday music from previous
years……If you’re a fan like I am, tune in…..I think you’ll like it!
Then, on December 9, we will feature the great Rhonda
Vincent, who has a brand new album on the market entitled Christmas Time. There
are few female singers who are as talented and classy as Rhonda, and she’ll be
sharing a lot of holiday memories and music with us.
As for December 16 and 23 – I haven’t figured out yet, to be
honest with you. I know we will be featuring some classic Christmas radio
specials from years’ past, and also some neat TV soundtracks featuring holiday
celebrations at the Ponderosa and on Waltons’ Mountain. It’s going to be a step
back in time, but I just haven’t mapped it all out yet…..
But there’s still time! I urge you to tune in to hear my
conversation with Kenny on December 2 and Rhonda on the 9th. Showtime
is 1pm, and it’s all sponsored by Tennessee Properties…..WNKX Kix 96.7
FM…….I’ll save a cup of egg nog or boiled custard for ya!
