The band is back together again folks! CJ joins Melissa back on the mic to gush over Dolly Parton, the world's most loved and praised Rhinestone cowgirl who captures audiences from the gays to the redneck babes. Melissa introduced CJ to Sister Rosetta Tharpe, the original "Godmother of Rock-n-Roll" who shocked southern conservatives by shredding her electric guitar on stage to soulful gospel music. Oh ya, she was queer too! (*the horror, the madness!)
