"Bluegrass Cafe" Playlist - 8/9/2009

Hi Folks,

We began the show with a heritage corner tribute to the recently-departed Mike Seeger that began with selections from his two influential Folkways field-recorded LPs, and two of Mike at Newport with The New Lost City Ramblers.

About halfway through the first hour we put Dick Bowden on the air for a great discussion of Stanley music and some banjo pickin'. Dick, whose regular band is The Old Time Bluegrass Singers, is participating in a Stanley tribute show at a Hartford restaurant (The Firebox) next Sunday with a group called "Nick & Dick and the Rank Stranglers", so we had a good time while promoting that show.

We were able to get some new music on that included singles from Darren Beachley, Larry Stephenson with Dailey & Vincent, and a couple from Barry Scott & Second Wind's new CD.

Next week we will be back, or we will have a bluegrass guest fill-in for us. You will just have to tune in to find out.
