A musical history of oil drilling
In Texas and the Gulf region, musicians have been singing about oil drilling since the oil boom in the early 20th Century. In this segment, we hear samples of this music and then a conversation about it with the Old Mole's Clayton Morgareidge and our radical musicologist Brad Duncan.
