And that's Rick Lane and The Wolfpack Band playing this Spring at the Craighead Forest bandshell. In order from the top we heard "Long Tall Sally", "Farewell Party", "Hello Josephine", and "Begging To You". Rick Lane is a Northeast Arkansas musical pioneer and throughout his career he has played Rock and Roll, Blues, Bluegrass, Honky Tonk, Gospel, and Country. As you can hear he's still draws from all these styles. I recorded their Sunday In The Park performance on June 13, 2010.

So listen to the radio and the internet and then when you want to get the real stuff and really enjoy some music come to some of our live shows.

I've got some deep Blues lyrics for you now. Just listen to Rick sing "You don't know about lonely til it's chiseled in stone."

That's what I'm talking about, Rick Lane and The Wolfpack Band singing about that "Old Time Rock n Roll." Before that we heard "Chiseled In Stone". Playing in The Wolfpack Band are Steve Parnell, rhythm guitar; Bill Williams, bass; and Cody Jackson, drums. Rick Lane plays lead guitar and sings. Sometimes, like on this next Blues song he blows some harp. Here's Rick Lane and The Wolfpack Band doing "High Heeled Sneakers" and a Merle Haggard song, "Someday When Things Are Good".

All right now, it's Rick Lane and The Wolfpack Band doing "Johnny B. Goode". Before that we heard the "Boot Scootin' Boogie". Coming up next they're "Slippin' and Slidin'".

You're listening to Something Blue on KASU.

That's Rick Lane and The Wolfpack Band closing their set with "Wipeout".

Every so often when you put on live music you get a chance to make history. As Rick said earlier in the show between the two bands playing we had all four members of Bobby Lee Trammel's touring band. It had to happen and you know I was twisting. Here they are now. The Bobby Lee Trammel Reunion Band doing "Arkansas Twist".
