We started off this show with a little tune from The Trespassers called, “Coyote’s Last Stand,” which can be found on their album, The High Lonesome Rambler and can be purchased at MusicSumo.com. Let’s take another listen to a tune off of that album and then hear a little bit from the band. This is The Trespassers with “B Miner Swing.”
