Last Week’s Texas Trios have arrived! Be sure to tune in weekdays at 8:03PM for a trio of Texas Tunes with Chuck!
This week can got to hell. RIP Dolly, RIP Tim Curry, I mean it started like any other week in a Texas Summer, a flaming hellscape that doesn’t even cool off overnight, but that at least is predictable. I do my best to give you something to root for in this time of turmoil and stuff. Some decent Trios of Texas music for you to peruse! -Chuck

If Greg Abbott can use AI to pick out songs for his ‘summer playlist’ like Windy Nelsin, and Khrubangining, I figured I would give it a shot. Yeah, I had to get a bit more focused to score some Pantera, I won’t be using that data center again.
Steve Miller Band – Rock n’ Me
Sir Douglas Quintet – She’s About a Mover
Pantera – Cowboys From Hell
