This week's Ramsor Records album of the week is Sammy Walker's Blue Eye Georgia Darling.

Born and raised in Norcross, Georgia, Sammy was discovered by famed protest singer Phil Oaks,

who landed him a two-record deal with Warner Brothers. The tapes that comprised the album

were from the 1975 demo sessions that helped Walker land the deal.

Sammy was managed by Howard Leventhal, who managed Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger,

and the Weavers.

Darling, please visit ramsore records.com today.

Throughout the latter part of the 20th century, the perception of golf in popular culture was that of a sport of wealthy white men who gathered at their exclusive

country clubs making business deals over 18 holes of golf, all the while smoking expensive

cigars and drinking martinis.

You know, like in Caddyshack.

But then, from out of nowhere, Tiger Woods burst onto the scene, changing the look and style

of the sport forever.

Well, the truth behind the sports history is much more complicated and a bit more noble.

For example, since 1970, the FedEx St. Jude Classic Golf Tournament has raised over $33 million

for the hospital.

This week on the road to now, we speak with Dr. Tony Parker, historian at the World Golf Hall of Fame and Museum in St. Augustine, Florida.

And we discuss the history of golf.

I'm Bob Crawford.

I'm Ben Sawyer, and this is the Road to Now.

Hey, Bob.
