During Sunday's Bluegrass Cafe, we spent a good bit of time celebrating the 99th birth anniversary of the Country Music Hall of Famer, Ray Price. Though the Cherokee Cowboy was definitely NOT a Bluegrass performer, like so many of his contemporaries, a whole bunch of Ray Price songs have been recorded in a Bluegrass style. We couldn't let the day pass without sharing a whole bunch of them, so we didn't.
We also remembered the wonderful Bluegrass songwriter, Randall Hylton (January 8, 1945 - July 19, 2003). Randall Hylton left us with many fine songs that have become an important part of Bluegrass history, and we shared just four of them on Sunday.
New music was part of the show, too, with new selections from Greg Blake, Joe Mullins & the Radio Ramblers, Wyatt Ellis with Peter Rowan, the Henhouse Prowlers, and a tribute to the late Audie Blaylock from some former members of his band, Redline.
Hope you have a wonderful week, and we'll look forward to joining you on the airwaves again next Sunday afternoon from 4-7PM for another edition of our Bluegrass Cafe.
