Boppin' With Beth Christmas Show 12-23-22

 

It's a boppin' Christmas show on this week's Boppin' With Beth. A show dedicated to all the artists that we lost this year and 2 members of my family that passed away in 1958 (My Grandmother, Frances Letha Cook) and this year (my uncle, Grady Orbin Cook), respectively. The times are sad, the music doesn't have to be. There are tunes from The Brian Setzer Orchestra, James Taylor, Shenandoah, JD McPherson, Cory M. Coons (ft. his 8 year old daughter, Charleigh Lynn Coons), Chris Isaak, Jesse Terry, Shaun Young, Los Straitjackets, Dave Del Monte and The Cross County Boys, The Beach Boys, Mark Malibu & The Wasagas, Phil Keaggy, The Smithereens and Chris Hillman & Herb Pederson. Plus, there's tracks from Lucky Jones, The Chieftains with Jackson Browne, Diamond Rio and a tune from Pat Huggins to close out the show. Merry Christmas!
