About
Written in 1968 by Jimmy Web, "Wichita Lineman," is the first philosophical country song: a heartbreaking torch ballad still celebrated for its mercurial songwriting genius.
Mixing close listening, interviews and travelogue, Dylan Jones explores the legacy of the record. Part biography, part work of musicological archeology, The Wichita Lineman opens a window on to America in the late twentieth century through the prison of a song that has entertained and haunted millions for over half a century.
