"Bluegrass Cafe" playlist - 10/29/2017

Happy almost-Halloween!  Sunday's Bluegrass Cafe featured 60+ minutes' worth of Halloween-worthy songs including tales of witches, murders, ghosts, and mysterious lights.  Of course, if we were only allowed to play one Bluegrass Halloween song, it's likely that song would have to be a true classic from the Country Gentlemen:  "Bringing Mary Home."  When I was a kid, just looking at the album cover for that LP used to scare me quite a bit, but the song will live on forever...as it should.  Included with our spooky tunes was a new entry for 2017 -- "Sam Jocelyn's Ghost" from the ETSU Bluegrass Pride Band.  Creepy!

We remembered two fine Bluegrass birthdays, too.  Martha Hearon Adcock celebrates her birthday on October 29th, as does a bona fide Bluegrass legend:  Sonny Osborne.  In fact, Sonny turns 80 years old today, so happiest birthday wishes to both Martha and Sonny!

Hope you heard something you enjoyed during this week's Bluegrass Cafe -- and that you will consider joining us once again next Sunday afternoon, 4-7PM.

Have a spooktacular week!
