This week on the Country Den, I’ve got classic country songs linked to the Olympic games. You’ll hear about the victory for the Canadian women’s hockey squad with Thunder Bay’s Haley Irwin(with her first gold win at the 2010 Olympics); more gold with the Gatlin Brothers, Tammy Wynette and George Jones, Slim Whitman and my Classic Country Legend Hank Snow; walking with Ernest Tubb, Ray Price, Leroy Van Dyke; welcoming the world with Loretta Lynn, Brad Paisley and Skeeter Davis; an inspiring Olympic moment turned into a movie and the return of a favorite sport with a song about it from Alabama.

The Country Den is brought to you by Backstage, Thunder Bay’s newest music and accessory store at 215 Red River Road.
