"Bluegrass Cafe" Playlist - 1/17/2010

Hi Folks,

Amy will have this week's list up soon, and I'm so far behind schedule that I thought I'd better get last week's list up now before it is too obsolete to post.

Bluegrass Cafe had another five-hour show last Sunday thanks to the UCONN break, and I used the opportunity to bring in some music not often played on the show. Apparently it struck a nerve because I got quite a number of calls expressing thanks for the programming -- only a handful with their own requests. Now, if only I could develop a scientific way to predict that response...!

New music included selections from Patuxent Partners, Bill Emerson and Sweet Dixie, Darin and Brooke Aldridge, Jesse Baker, The Spinney Brothers, Chris Jones and the Night Drivers, Chris Warner, Darrin Beachley, and Dan Menzone.

I also introduced brand new releases from Randy Kohrs, Bobby Atkins and the Countrymen, and the wonderful retro-group Carolina Native Sons featuring the late Clarence Greene. Mandolin picker Joseph Scott, one of the band members, told me that the CDs had been in their hands only two days when Clarence passed away. This CD -- "Rank Ol' Bluegrass" -- is a part of an incredible and influential legacy Clarence leaves behind.

From the Heritage Corner vaults, I picked some classic tracks for the show from Mac Martin, Mac Wiseman, The Lilly Brothers & Don Stover, The Osborne Brothers with Red Allen, Joe Val, The Good Ol' Persons featuring a very young Laurie Lewis, Ralph Stanley, and Wade Mainer.

Amy will be on at the regular time of 4-7pm ET this Sunday, January 24, so tune in to hear the banjos and fiddles ring!
