The other obvious example is 'Corn Licker Still in Ga.' but I'm looking less for comedy records and more for records that describe how to do something (like skin a hog) in the context of a scripted skit, with or without music. The larger theme here could be described as, "records that describe how to do "country" things". |

Can't find audio for "Corn Licker Stillin Georgia", but here's some description: click 1, click 2. 14 sides, wow! ~ Becky in Long Beach |

The back of the album cover has a useful glossary for many of the terms in the game of making illicit brew which is very helpful. I don't think however that you will find many other country activities mentioned there except drinking fighting and making music. Thinking about it, what more do you need? Hoot |
