"Bluegrass Cafe" playlist - 2/25/2018

Ralph Stanley
(February 25, 1927 - June 23, 2016)

For Sunday's edition of Bluegrass Cafe, we shared lots of music from performers heard at last week's delightful Joe Val Bluegrass Festival (as always, presented by the Boston Bluegrass Union), some new music, selections from a few different LPs, and a whole lot of music from Ralph Stanley, who was born on February 25, 1927.  

Among the new selections for this week were two songs we had not previously played from Becky Buller's "Crepe Paper Heart" recording (which was released on February 14th), a single from a forthcoming project by Massachusetts-born Michelle Canning, and both "sides" of a new CD single from Terry Baucom's Dukes of Drive, who performed last week at the Joe Val Bluegrass Festival.  

For something different, I brought a few LPs from the home library, and enjoyed playing them.  Older LP music included tunes from the Good Ol' Persons, Tim O'Brien, Appalachian Express, and three songs from a record from 1967 on Zap Records by the Country Gentlemen:  "Live From The Stage Of The Roanoke Bluegrass Festival."  

Thanks again to our friend, Jim Beaver, for sitting in for last Sunday's radio show.  We'll look forward to being with you again next Sunday afternoon, 4-7PM.

Enjoy the week!
