"Bluegrass Cafe" Playlist - 1/20/2013

Hi Folks.
Who else but Dolly
This show occurred a day after a slew of birthdays and anniversaries which we recognized in one set of music.  January 19 was the anniversary of the birth of Dolly Parton, Charlie Waller, Jimmy Haley, and the death of John Hardy.


John Hardy hanging - Jan 19, 1894





We played songs by all of these folks except John Hardy, and we let the Lilly Brothers & Don Stover sing about him.


Doyle Lawson and the first Quicksilver
L-R: Terry Baucom, Doyle, Jimmy Haley, Lou Reid

Other great music included a previously unreleased song from the late Jake Jenkins -- banjo picker with Karl Shiflett & Big Country Show -- released on a tribute album of Jake Jenkins songs by Karl Shiflett.  Jake, who died in a plane crash in March 2011, was with Karl from 1993 to 2003.  We also heard from a KSBC album that had not previously been released on CD.

Monroe Crossing

New music included a song from a brand new CD from Minnesota bluegrass ambassadors Monroe Crossing.  This appears to be one of the best albums ever from the group.

The Heritage Corner showcased a 1956 song from The McCormick Brothers, The A.L. Phipps Family, and a rare album from the "basement" studio of Ray Davis from 1987 that reunited Ralph Stanley with George Shuffler along with James King.



Newer music was provided by Kathy Kallick Band, Ricky Skaggs, Clay Hess, Ray Edwards, Joe Mullins, Darin & Brooke Aldridge, Dewey Farmer & Derwin Hinson, Russell Moore & IIIrd Tyme Out, The Grass Cats, Lonesome River Band, Eddie & Martha Adcock with Tom Gray, Nightflyer, Sleepy Man Banjo Boys, David Peterson, and Nu-Blu.

Be sure to tune in next Sunday when Amy will make the banjos and fiddles ring on another great edition of "Bluegrass Cafe."
