"Bluegrass Cafe" playlist - 6/17/2018

My father - Alton Orlomoski - with 3/4 of a a kid on
the Skyline Drive

Happy Father's Day!  On this day dedicated to Dad, we celebrated by sharing songs about fathers, as well as played a whole bunch of songs performed by Bluegrass fathers and their offspring.  To that end, we heard songs from Bluegrass fathers and kids with the surnames of Amos, Armistead, Feinberg, Harrell, Holt, McCoury, McGee, Monroe, Mullins, Osborne, Paisley, Parmley, Reno, Shiflett, Stanley, and White.

And we couldn't let the day pass without sharing a few songs from the Lester Flatt Song Catalog, as this Bluegrass and Country Music Hall of Famer was born on June 19, 1914.

Enjoy the week, and be sure to join Cathy Day in our Bluegrass Cafe next Sunday afternoon!

"Bluegrass Cafe" playlist - 6/10/2018

For the most part, Sunday's Bluegrass Cafe included a whole lot of brand-new or recently released recordings.  In the latter category, we heard selections from Junior Sisk, Dale Perry, Jerry Wicentowski, the Del McCoury Band, the Highland Travelers, the Feinberg Brothers, David Davis & the Warrior River Boys, Peter Rowan, and David Benedict.  

Our very brand-new recording for this week was the long-time-in-the-making, "Epilogue:  A Tribute To John Duffey."  This new recording from Smithsonian Folkways features an all-star collection of folks paying tribute to the wonderful John Duffey, who was a founding member of two of the most influential, greatest bands in the history of Bluegrass Music:  the Country Gentlemen and the Seldom Scene.  Fabulous.

We also remembered the birthday of Tony Rice (born June 8, 1951) and played a song in tribute to the late Stacy Phillips, who died unexpectedly earlier this week.  

Hope you enjoyed the program, and that you'll consider joining me once more next Sunday from 4-7PM.

Enjoy the week!
