We featured the early 1950s music of Jimmy Martin, all of which (from 1954 through 1974) can be found on an excellent 5-CD box set from Bear Family.
We also had a surprise appearance of a song from the Steep Canyon Rangers' rare first album from 2001, "Old Dreams & New Dreams." Graham Sharp, the Rangers' banjo picker, tipped us off about this early effort during our interview with him in February and we found a copy on eBay. The Rangers' latest efforts are far superior in our opinion, but it is interesting to see how the group has grown over the past seven years. That early album was produced by early New Grass Revival member Curtis Burch.
Remember, our annual Radiothon will occur on two upcoming Sundays, 6 and 13 April, and we would really appreciate your show of support for bluegrass music in Southern New England.
Amy will be with you next week.
