ABSOLUTE COUNTRY (Danish Version)
Her er jeg i studiet klar til udsendelsen "Absolute Country."
Radioprogrammet hedder sådan, fordi jeg gennem
dets 2 timers forløb forsøger,
for det første;
at beskrive de forskellige stilarter og tidsperioder rent musikalsk, og
for det andet;
at følge en rød tråd i programforløbet med en overraskelseseffekt i "musikalske breaks”.
Countrymusik har mange forskellige stilarter fra forskellige tidsperioder.
Tilbage fra midt i 20´ne og op til i dag har countrymusikken haft sin udvikling med en ny stil for hvert nyt årti.
For eks. hed det ”Hillbilly” tidligere, men det var bl. a. Ernest Tubb med til at få ændret til ”Country and Western" i begyndelsen af 50’rne, og store countrynavne er efterfølgende blevet legender selv udenfor countrymusikken.
Programmet ”Absolute Country” forsøger at fortælle om kendte og mindre kendte countrysangere ved hjælp af korte eller lange biografier fulgt op med musikeksempler.
”Absolute Country” har været sendt i 12 år på 92,8 MHz, som en del af RadioHelsingørs mangfoldighed.

ABSOLUTE COUNTRY (English Version)
Here I am in the studio ready to broadcast “ABSOLUTE COUNTRY.”
The program is called this because during its two hour duration I attempt:
First:
To describe various styles and time periods, musically speaking.
Second:
To follow a red tread in the program with a surprise effect of “musical breaks".
Country music has many different styles from different time periods with a new style for every new decade.
Country music traces its development back to the mid 20's through today.
Early on it was called “Hillbilly,” but in the 50's Ernest Tubb, among others, was instrumental in getting it changed to “Country and Western.”
Big country names have subsequent become legends even outside country music.
The program “ABSOLUTE COUNTRY” attempts to tell about the well known and less well known country singers by way of shorter or longer biographies followed by musical examples.
“ABSOLUTE COUNTRY” has been on the air for 12 years on
92.8 MHz, as part of Radio Elsinore’s varied programming.
