We had a delightful day on the radio before the rains came, so it was a good time to be listening to bluegrass. Marti and I enjoyed bringing it to you. Marti has been kind of scarce around the studio lately, so it was a pleasure sharing the microphone with her this week.
New music was the unofficial focus of this show, and we had plenty. Some of the artists making that new music were The Grascals, Darrell Webb, Ken Scoggins & Millers Creek, Carolina Native Sons, Patuxent Partners, Thomas Wywrot, Taylor Baker, Audie Blaylock and Redline, The Chapmans, Chris Warner, Lorraine Jordan & Carolina Road, The Earl Brothers, Herman McGee, Summertown Road, and Larry Stephenson. Whew! 2010 is turning out to be a good year for new releases.
The Heritage Corner pulled a few tasty treats from the vaults, including numbers from Flatt & Scruggs, The Johnson Mountain Boys before Rounder, and the earliest Brandywine recording from 1981 (on vinyl) of Bob Paisley & the Southern Grass. We also featured a segment of bluegrass comedy or novelty tunes that included numbers from Homer & Jethro (not bluegrass, but good picking anyway), The Stanley Brothers, Reno & Smiley, and The Lilly Brothers and Don Stover.
Thanks for listening, and be sure to tune in Sunday at 4pm ET when Amy will bring you three hours of the best in bluegrass.
