Fill-in for "Bluegrass Rules" - 11/28/2013

Hi Folks,

James Ward

By now listeners of Bluegrass Cafe know there is another bluegrass program on WHUS called "Bluegrass Rules" hosted by James & Cathy Ward.   The show is usually on a weekday afternoon depending on the semester, and this semester it is on Thursday afternoons usually 3-5pm ET.

Cathy Ward

James & Cathy took Thanksgiving day off this year and I was happy to fill-in on their show.

I included much local music on this show as well as an above-average dose of mountain-style bluegrass.

The playlist is below.
