"San Antonio Rose" is a #swing #instrumental introduced in late 1938 by #BobWillsAndHisTexasPlayboys. Quickly becoming the band's most #popular number, Wills and band members devised lyrics, which were recorded on April 16, 1940, and released on Okeh 5694 in August as "New #SanAntonioRose". Despite having completed a lengthy #Hillbilly/Folk chart run in 1939, which culminated at #1, it quickly rose to the top again, in early 1941.

“I think our culture sends a message to young men that you should suppress every masculine urge, you should try to cast aside your family, you should try to suppress what makes you a young man in the first place"

"Personally, I like to go home, f**k the couch, drink a six pack and demand: where's my supper you lazy lil bitch?"

I'm starting to think the opposite of #woke is just #Dickhead

I am a #hillbilly. From #Appalachia. And here’s the elegy for #rural localities from the folks they elected.

As much as $1 out of every $5 of public budgets in #rural #virginia counties comes from…taking money from rich states outside VA and sending it through the #federal gummint to #rural localities. More pronounced after 2020.

Common weal in the #commonwealth.
Aka wealth redistribution.
Aka the S word.

You’re welcome, y’all.

“Have you EVER said thank you (JD)?!?!?”

Ich hab neulich übrigens das Buch des Vize- #Hillbilly gekauft. Gebraucht, bei #Booklooker, damit der Typ nicht auch noch Geld an mir verdient.

"Whoa, sailor, I've heard that line before !
You'll look into my eyes and tell me lies and tales of the seven seas
But a sailor's full of that kinda bull so don't hand it to me !" (1947)

If you weren’t so ignorant
if you listened and took others seriously, you could have found all this out. I'll put it this way: I've already got a guitar (and a banjo too)... see you.

Some call it Hillbilly – some call it Blues – you are all wrong. It’s greatness.

Eerste vijf hoofdstukken van J.D Vance zijn Hillbilly blues waren mooi geschreven en erg raak. Helaas is nu het gekwezel begonnen, blijkt...

Today in Labor History August 1, 1921: Sheriff Sid Hatfield and Ed Chambers were murdered by Baldwin-Felts private cops. They did it in retaliation for Hatfield’s role in the Matewan labor battle in 1920, when two Felts family thugs were killed by Hatfield and his deputies, who had sided with the coal miners during their strike. The private cops executed Hatfield and Chambers on the Welch County courthouse steps in front of their wives. This led to the Battle of Blair Mountain, where 20,000 coal miners marched to the anti-union stronghold Logan County to overthrow Sheriff Dan Chaffin, the coal company tyrant who murdered miners with impunity. The Battle of Blair Mountain started in September 1921. The armed miners battled 3,000 cops, private cops and vigilantes, who were backed by the coal bosses. It was the largest labor uprising in U.S. history, and the largest armed insurrection since the Civil War. The president of the U.S. eventually sent in 27,000 national guards. Over 1 million rounds were fired. Up to 100 miners were killed, along with 10-30 Baldwin-Felts detectives and 3 national guards. They even dropped bombs on the miners from planes, the second time in history that the U.S. bombed its own citizens (the first being the pogrom against black residents of Tulsa, earlier that same year).

Several novels portray the Battle of Blair Mountain, including Storming Heaven, by Denise Giardina, (1987), Blair Mountain, by Jonathan Lynn (2006), and Carla Rising, by Topper Sherwood (2015). And one of my favorite films of all time, “Matewan,” by John Sayles (1987), portrays the Matewan Massacre and the strike leading up to it. The film has a fantastic soundtrack of Appalachian music from the period. And the great West Virginia bluegrass singer, Hazel Dickens, sings the title track, "Fire in the Hole." She also appears in the film as a member of the Freewill Baptist Church.

#JDVance will ñot be helping #Hillbilly #Women claims #HillWomen author, a #Kentucky state Senator

It's important to remember that #JDVance is not and was never a #hillbilly. The book which launched him into the spotlight was about his grandparents, not him. He himself grew up in an upper-middle class family.

In light of #CarpetbaggerVance becoming the VP pick for the #PendejoInChief, this is making the rounds again. Of possible interest.
