| Roland White on the mandolin with the Nashville Grass, c. early 1970s. |
Our "regular" showtime included a bit of a birthday tribute to the delightful Roland White, who has had himself quite a career in the World of Bluegrass, working with everyone from Bill Monroe and Lester Flatt to the Kentucky Colonels, Country Gazette, and Nashville Bluegrass Band. What a storied career! We selected five songs to play from the Roland White Discography, but we could have played plenty more. For now, though, five songs is a good way to celebrate 78 years of living.
Hope you were able to join us for today's show, and that you'll be sure to join Jim next Sunday afternoon from 4-7PM (more or less, depending on UConn Baseball).
Have a good week!
