"Bluegrass Cafe" playlist - 7/6/2008

We wrapped up the Independence Day weekend with a good dose of BG -- hope you heard something you enjoyed somewhere along the way...

Included were a couple tracks from the brand-new Rounder release (long overdue, some might say) called The Room Over Mine from Danny Paisley & the Southern Grass. The Paisleys have been long-time crowd favorites at many festivals throughout the northeast, and it's great to see them finally getting the national recognition they deserve. This CD is not a disappointment, especially if you're partial to the more traditional sounds of the BG. You're certain to hear plenty more from this disc over the next few weeks and months at the BG Cafe.

In addition, we paid tribute to The Storyteller, Tom T. Hall, as he was formally inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in ceremonies held last Sunday, June 29th. Unless you've not purchased a BG recording within the past several years, you're probably aware that Tom T. has been spending a good bit of his "retirement" time writing many, many BG tunes that are included on almost every new BG CD that is released, it seems. His induction into the Hall of Fame is richly deserved and long-overdue -- congratulations to him!

Sunday was also a day for giveaways. We had four passes to a new festival to be held next Saturday & Sunday (July 12 & 13) at the Woodland Meeting House in Foster, RI, and two one-day passes to the upcoming Grey Fox BG Festival at its new location in Oak Hill, NY. Jim will have two more one-day Grey Fox passes to give away next Sunday, July 13th. Do listen in, won't you?
