Episode Details

We tackle a listener request: Randy Travis's all-time great "Hard Rock Bottom of Your Heart". From melody to harmony, instrumentation to lyrics, everything works about this neotraditional classic.  And we didn't even talk about Randy Travis's smooth, effortless phrasing!  Only country music would lay bare the sort of righteous indignation the unfaithful might feel, on days when shame turns into anger.  It's brilliant.
