Playlist - 10/19/2014

Hi Folks.

The show began with popular WV teen sibling duo Marteka & William channeling some Earl & Lester.  The reaction we received from playing these two on an earlier fill-in show was remarkable and I expect we will hear much more from them in the near future.

There was a tribute set to Songwriter Hall of Fame member Paul Craft who just died October 18, the day before this show.  The set also served to salute the Seldom Scene who not only kick-started Craft's songwriting career, but also whose original members were just inducted into the IBMA Hall of Fame.


New music, some of which was obtained while I was in Raleigh with the IBMA, included songs from the Lonesome River Band, Hot Rize, Larry Sparks, Junior Sisk, The Earls Of Leicester, Joe Mullins, Nu-Blu, Turning Ground, Wayne Taylor, Darin & Brooke Aldridge, The Spinney Brothers, and Crowe, Lawson and Williams.


One of my favorite things to do is share some of the rare music in my collection with the Bluegrass Cafe audience, and for this show it was a stack of 45 RPM singles that I scooped off the top of a "new" batch I have acquired.




The Heritage Corner featured The Campbell Trio, Jack Cooke, The Sloas Brothers, Frank Necessary and The Stone Mountain Boys, Morris Herbert and The Twin County Boys, Bill Box and The Dixie Drifters, The Dillards, The Chestnut Grove Quartet, Jimmie Williams & Red Ellis, Reno & Harrell, Carl Story, and Ralph Stanley, and more.

Tune in next Sunday when Amy will make the banjos and fiddles ring.
