David Cantwell, adjunct professor of English, recently wrote about Tanya Tucker for the New Yorker online. His essay, published on August 23, 2019, reviews her career and her latest album, While I’m Livin’. In his review, Cantwell argues that Tucker’s album may be the best of her career.
Also, on Thursday, August 29, in conjunction with the Mid-Continent Public Library and KCPT, Cantwell will discuss country music’s greatest songs as part of a sneak peek for Ken Burns’ newest documentary, Country Music. The event will start at 6:30 pm in the Midwest Genealogy Center Community Hall, 3440 S. Lee’s Summit Road, Independence, MO 64055.
