The Radio Ramblers are an excellent trio consisting of David Madgwick, Willy Briggs and Gary Boller, former members of the Ricardos and the Tennessee Rhythm Riders.
Cryin’ Blues is a hillbilly number, mostly acoustic, with a light steel guitar while The Devil’s Gonna Get You brings is a hillbilly bop/rockabilly reminiscent of Buddy and Bob. Both sides are originals written by Willy Briggs.

Traffic Cop Blues / How Can I Tell You
Rockin’ Shelby Records ‎– 45-RS-05
Excellent single by the Tenessee Rhythm Riders featuring two originals from the pen of Willy Briggs.
Traffic Cop Blues is a mandolin led tune and features nice harmony vocals from Lynette Morgan and Willy Briggs in the Maddox Brothers and Rose style they’re so good at. Lynette Morgan takes the lead vocals on How Can I Tell You a superb hillbilly with rural fiddle and steel guitar.
