Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
You don't have to be a country music buff to appreciate the genre's winding tales of drinking, cheating, death and God. Dana Jennings talks about his new book, "Sing Me Back Home: Love, Death and Country Music." Then: Jeffrey Lewis revisits the songs of a punk-rock original with an in-studio performance. This is an encore edition of Soundcheck.
