“Asleep At The Wheel (one of the most underrated bands out there)”

Not underrated by me. I’ve liked Asleep at the Wheel since the mid-70s, though I only saw them once, in 1981.

Dean Martin also covered the song and a man named Johnny Mueller uses it as the theme for his podcast on “The Ex-Pat Files: Living In Latin America” which I listened to regularly while doing my prep work for moving to Panama. Mueller, on the other hand, decided place like Panama and Costa Rica had become too gringo-ized and now lives off the grid somewhere in Guatemala.

One of my favorite Chrostmas albums is by Asleep At The Wheel. A really good band but you don’t hear too much about them.

Saw Asleep at the Wheel a few years ago at the Georgia Mountain Fair.
They were entertaining as could be. a fine time was had by all.
