Abstract

This article presents information on the music album "Night Train to Nashville: Music City Rhythm & Blues 1945-1970." The album "Night Train to Nashville: Music City Rhythm & Blues 1945-1970" argues that the country-music mecca's Jefferson Street was just as crucial to the development of R&B as Memphis' Beale Street. The interesting part of the album is the lesser-known artist Christine Kittrell, who shines on the depressive blues number "Sittin' Here Drinking." The one disappointment: that excellent country-R&B crossovers such as Joe Simon's cover of Waylon Jennings' "The Chokin' Kind" are so rare.
