The new album by Willie Nelson and Asleep at the Wheel is really different. Very old school or retro or whatever you want to call it. I call it old time Texas swing and the album is called “Willie and the Wheel.”

All the songs are the kind that you can dance to and if you aren’t on the dance floor then you are probably bobbing your head and tapping your feet while you sit at the bar and sip on your cold beer.

Good stuff – even for the younger peeps who like to two step once in a while.

Great tune by a young band out of Georgia called the Zac Brown Band with their hit song, “Chicken Fried.” The video is being aired on CMT and there are a couple different versions of it. There’s a live band version and the more typical music video. The song is from their current album out, called “The Foundation.”

If you get a chance to see the ZacBrown Band you should go – it’s guaranteed to be a fun show and lots of good times music. These guys are good musicians and good people. Check them out.

Had to watch the Grammy’s last night. This is the only awards show I care about. Except maybe the Miss America show.

There were a lot of sympathy awards given out this year (Jennifer Hudson, Dr. John)  and a few geezer’s (Eagles, Robert Plant) that won again, but I was glad to see Coldplay get the recognition they deserved.

I don’t know about you, but I’m sick to death of Justin Timberlake. He’s a jerk with no class and I’m sick of seeing him on all the big shows. I wish he would get married and shrivel up like the rest of the has-beens and let some new talent have a shot.
