"Bluegrass Cafe" playlist - 6/28/2020

The Bluegrass Cafe Express/Special/Zephyr (choose your favorite name) rolled into the WHUS (radio) station today and featured thirty more songs about trains -- and with no repeats from our May 31st show, which also featured a whole bunch of tunes about trains.  As there are still plenty more train songs we haven't shared during these pre-recorded shows quite yet, we may put together another show featuring tunes about trains later on this summer.  

During Sunday's program, we also belatedly celebrated the birthdays of two members of the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame:  banjo legend Eddie Adcock (born June 21, 1938) and New England's only (so far) BGHoF member, the late Joe Val (born June 25, 1926).  No better way to celebrate these two than to share some fine music, so we did just that.

Even with all of the trains and the birthday celebrating, we still had time for just a few newer selections, too.  This time around we included music from Special Consensus, Amanda Cook, the duo of Boone & Foster, the Feinberg Brothers, and High Fidelity.

Hope you are enjoying our pre-recorded shows, as we will keep putting them together until we are allowed back into the radio station at the University of Connecticut.  In the meantime, if you would like to contact us, please send email and/or visit our Bluegrass Cafe Facebook page and give it a "like."  

Have a great week, and, of course, stay healthy!
