All Faron!

In this week's episode, we're taking the time to remember the almost unrivalled charisma, vocal versatility and showmanship of Faron Young. We've spanned his entire career in this week's show - taken some of his big hits, some of his album tracks and lesser known stuff, added some stories about the Singing Sheriff and packaged it up into a three-hour tribute to Faron. There's a lot that could be said of the talents and upsides (and downsides) that came in the career of Faron Young, but suffice to say that Faron's ability with the microphone and with an audience was an absolute pillar upon which the success of country music was built. And that's not an overstatement.

Om Podcasten

Some call it old country; classic country; real country. We call it traditional country, and that's exactly what we do here at "If That Ain't Country". For three hours each week, we feature the very best traditional country, honky tonk, bluegrass and western swing from the golden years 'til today. It's pretty simple but we think you'll like it. Hosted by Western Red - it's US country with an Australian twist, keeping true to the traditions that make country great. With a genuine love and deep respect for the foundations of the genre, the legends are right alongside the best of today's independent artists - a mix you won't find anywhere else.
