“I wonder if I can make a Ravagers fanmix out of mp3s I already own,” I said.
“It’ll be fun,” I said.
“This won’t get out of hand at all,” I said.
What saved me was the excellent mental image of Kraglin playing the banjo. And lo, thus was born the blues/country/folk/western/bluegrass band of your nightmares. (The psychobilly’s just for spice.) I give you: Yondu & The Ravagers.
Well outlaws are forever runnin’ wild and free
Kickin’ in all the doors they didn’t even need no key
They didn’t let nobody tell ‘em how it’s supposed to be

(It's on Mixcloud because a couple of these songs aren't streaming anywhere, and the rest are scattered across different platforms. So I gathered them in one convenient place for you. Alternatively, if you want a zip file of the mp3s, PM me.)
