"Bluegrass Cafe" playlist - 10/1/2017

The last week of September found a whole lot of Bluegrass types down in Raleigh, North Carolina enjoying the World of Bluegrass events.  One of the highlights of the week is the annual International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) Awards -- sort of the Bluegrass version of the Grammy Awards.  During Sunday's Bluegrass Cafe, we shared music from several award-winners for 2017.  We also spent the first 30 minutes of the show recognizing the four newest inductees into the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame:  Hazel Dickens & Alice Gerrard, Bobby Hicks, and Roland White.  

Marty Robbins
(September 26, 1925 - December 8, 1982)

We remembered Martin David Robinson -- forever known to the music world as Marty Robbins -- by sharing several Bluegrass versions of songs from the Marty Robbins Songbook, as well as the extended-length version of Marty singing his own 1959 classic, "El Paso."

In addition, there was some music from 2017 recordings, including the Still Pickin' Trio, a track by Shawn Camp from the Mac Wiseman "I Sang The Song" collection, Feller & Hill, Eddie Adcock, Mark Kuykendall, Bobby Hicks & Asheville Bluegrass, the Grascals, the Molly Rose Band, the Gibson Brothers, and Flashback.

Be sure to join us for our next Bluegrass Cafe on Sunday afternoon, 4-7PM.

Enjoy the week!
