I wonder if they’ll find Johnny Cash in it (the Gulf Fire, I mean, not your bum).

Growing up, I was ignorant. While my first concert I attended was Kenny Rogers, and watched "The Dukes of Hazzard" back in the 80s I hated the bigotry of what I perceived as the "redneck" middle of the country.
But my best friend today, whom I have known for now being almost 20 years, hails from Oklahoma. He schooled me in educating me that not everyone from a red state was an asshole racist dick. He pointed out to me that Woodie Guthrie wrote a song about the former guy's dad being a dick on rent and poor people. He pointed out to me that Willy Nelson and Snoop Dog did video's together. He pointed out that the Dixie Chicks objected to Bush Jr's actions. He got me to have my first favorite country song by Margo Price "About To Find Out".
But, long before I met HB(Hillbilly Atheist), as he is known here, long before the internet, I was a huge Blondie fan. It was back in the day when I rejected disco yes, I WAS AN ABBA TRAITOR, and moved away from country music too.
Little did I know that Blondie did a cover of Johnny Cash and "Ring Of Fire". I only found that out a year or so ago because of my atheist redneck friend from Oklahoma.
