"Bluegrass Cafe" playlist - 9/17/2017

Hiram King Williams
(September 17, 1923 - January 1, 1953)
It just so happened that Sunday's Bluegrass Cafe fell on the birth anniversary of one Hiram King Williams -- forever known to the music world as Hank Williams.  With that in mind, it seemed quite appropriate to share lots of music from the vast Hank Williams Songbook, and so, we did.  In addition to numerous Bluegrass covers of Hank tunes, we even included a couple of signature songs from ol' Hank, himself.

We also played a song called "Angels From Appalachia," written by songwriter Kevin T. Hale.  This song was the First Prize Winner of the 2017 Podunk Bluegrass Festival Songwriter Contest, and is a fine number.  Hope you enjoyed it!  

And, of course, we included a few songs from recordings received by WHUS in 2017, which included music from Mile Twelve, the Sommers Rosenthal Family Band, Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver, Nothin' Fancy, the Lonesome River Band, Shawn Camp performing on the Mac Wiseman autobiography-in-song recording, Mark Kuykendall, Bobby Hicks & Asheville Bluegrass, the Molly Rose Band, and Joe Mullins & the Radio Ramblers.

Hope you were able to tune in on Sunday, but if not, you'll get another chance to listen to the show next Sunday afternoon, 4-7PM.  

Enjoy the week!
