"Bluegrass Cafe" Playlist - 1/31/2010

Hi Folks,

Bluegrass Cafe is still on a roll with another five-hour show last Sunday because of an opening in the schedule, and I was happy to make the banjos and fiddles ring for most of the afternoon. The requests were prolific.

New music included selections from Josh Williams, Patuxent Partners, Billy Boone Smith, Bill Emerson and Sweet Dixie, Blue Highway, Darin and Brooke Aldridge, Jesse Baker, The Spinney Brothers, Randy Kohrs, Bobby Atkins and the Countrymen, Chris Warner, Dan Menzone, Thomas Wywrot, Nate Leath + Friends, and Carolina Native Sons.

I got a couple of requests for Johnson Mountain Boys music, so I did a special set of live music from that great band.

To mark the sad occasion of their cessation of operations, I programmed a long set of music from the Pinecastle label.

From the Heritage Corner vaults, I dusted off J.E. Mainer from my home town of Concord, NC in 1967, Ralph Stanley from McClure in 1975, and The Stanley Brothers from Ray Davis' Baltimore car lot studio in 1963.

Amy will be making the banjos and fiddles ring next Sunday, so be sure to tune in at our regular time 4-7 pm ET.

We'll be at the Joe Val Festival February 12-14, so perhaps we'll see you there.

Regards,

Jim Beaver
