  • Loudon Wainwright III (born September 5, 1946) is a Grammy Award-winning singer/songwriter best known for his song "Dead Skunk in the Middle of the Road", portrayed Captain Calvin Spalding on the CBS-TV series M*A*S*H.
  • Loudon Wainwright III is an American singer, songwriter and sometime actor. His music has been variously described as folk, country and social commentary, and he is especially renowned as a disarmingly honest chronicler of relationships. John Peel played the first Loundon Wainwright album in 1970 and his first Peel session was broadcast on Top Gear in 1971. This was the start of a lasting relationship, with Loudon's fifteenth session being broadcast in late 2003. He twice performed joint live sessions for Peel and Kershaw during the time when their programmes were adjacent on the Radio 1 schedule, and in one of these Peel paid tribute to him saying "Andy and I wanted to get you in because we both think the world of you". He played live at Peel Acres in 1999, and he and Peel discussed producing an album of "standards", with Peel suggesting Willie Nelson's "Touch me" and Don Gibson's "Legend in my time". The final Loudon track played by Peel was probably Work In Progress from the 2003 session.
