The Time Machine Weekend episode of United States of Americana takes us to the years 1969 in the first hour, and 2011 in the second hour. We’ll hear tracks such as Glen Campbell's 1969 hit song "Galveston," and Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit's "Heart on a String" from their 2011 album, Here We Rest.

Thank you to Catholic Charities of Saint Paul and Minneapolis and to Kowalski's Markets for their support of The Current's Time Machine Weekend.
