American Routes
February 20, 2010
From Pretty Polly and Poor Ellen Smith to Lil' Liza Jane and Old Joe Clark, this American Routes deals with the nomenclature of music. We'll chat with a man many of you might know, and learn what it's like to grow up as John Smith. Plus, the San Antonio native and leader of the barnstorming 1950's band Mando & the Chili Peppers tells us how he took a turn from Tejano music to rock n' roll and ended up in Las Vegas with a stage name that stuck. And learn more about Jody, that shadowy figure that's got your girl and gone.
