Book Notes - David Menconi "Comin' Right at Ya"
From @largeheartedboy, by David Menconi:
Formation stories don't get much more unlikely than that of Asleep at the Wheel, which sounds like highly implausible fiction: Jewish college students drop out at the height of the Vietnam War, retreat to the West Virginia wilderness and form a Western swing band. But somehow, it worked. Forty-five years later, the Wheel is still rolling under the leadership of founder/guiding light Ray Benson, the sole constant throughout the group's existence.
Comin' Right at Ya: How a Jewish Yankee Hippie Went Country, or, the Often Outrageous History of Asleep at the Wheel tells the band's story in close to no-holds-barred fashion. It was my privilege to serve as co-writer for setting down one of the most remarkable chronologies in country music. Here is the "Comin' Right at Ya" playlist, with music from Asleep at the Wheel as well as various peers along the way.
For full commentary on this Ray Benson-themed playlist curated by David Menconi, head over to @largeheartedboy! Read the book notes here.
