The Hot Club of Cowtown's Elana James and Whit Smith talk about the making of "What Makes Bob Holler," Side 1.

  • Summary

  • Perhaps the first thing one notices when listening to the Hot Club of Cowtown is its lack of irony, self-consciousness and forced hipness in embracing a style of music that so easily lends itself to such things…Stylistically, the band steps out from the shadow of its influences to become more than a faithful retro band that likes to raise its tempo every now and then. It’s writing more of its own songs and varying its delivery… conscious always that above all else, the music is for dancing and an old-fashioned good time. ~ Neil Strauss, New York Times

    In this podcast, Elana James and Whit Smith talk about the making of What Makes Bob Holler back in 2010, while listening to it for the first time on vinyl. The Hot Club of Cowtown celebrates 25 years in 2022.
