Ray Wylie Hubbard Live – April 17, 2009
Oklahoma-born and Texas-based Ray Wylie Hubbard helped kick-start the progressive country music movement of the 1970s, and he still remains best known for the Jerry Jeff Walker-popularized anthem “Up Against the Wall, Redneck Mother.” The instant cult status for Hubbard led him to assemble the Cowboy Twinkies in the mid-70s, considered by many as the first ‘cowpunk’ group. Hubbard’s latest Snake Farm, recorded in 2006, features big, growling guitars and lyrics on women, dirty temptation and the devil. Listen to Ray Wylie Hubbard live on Eklektikos with guest host Kevin Connor.
