2 Hours of Classic Country – The Corbin County Arrangement – Last Year of an Outfit | Blacktop Radio

Classic outlaw country about a business in its last year — two hours of old country songs, one county, one outfit. Corbin County voted wet in 1965 and there was still an operation running in the autumn of 1968, because Fant County next door was dry and untaxed was cheaper than taxed and forty years of habit does not stop when a law changes. Fifteen people, and every one of them has a position in it. A woman who has run the whole thing since 1959 and has never touched a jar. A man who buys sugar in nine counties so nobody notices a pattern. A sheriff who inherited an understanding he did not make. A nineteen-year-old on his second month of short runs. Nobody in here gets raided. A liquor store opens on the square in November and the price is close enough. Classic country, outlaw country and honky-tonk cut the way it was cut in the seventies. Every track here is an original recording made for Blacktop Radio.
