"Bluegrass Cafe" playlist - 1/6/2018

Earl Eugene Scruggs
(January 6, 1924 - March 28, 2012)
On this first Sunday of January, we celebrated the birth anniversary of the most-emulated banjo picker in all of Bluegrass:  Earl Scruggs (born January 6, 1924).  We also celebrated the birth anniversary of a fine Bluegrass songwriter who left us too soon, Randall Hylton (born January 8, 1945), as well as a songwriter celebrating a birthday today, Gary Ferguson (born January 6, 1950).



In addition to celebrating birthdays, we included some brand new music from a perennial favorite in the area, Danny Paisley & the Southern Grass, as well as a new, throwback kind of band, Carolina Blue.   Other newer music came to us from Dreamcatcher and Deanie Richardson.

Hope you enjoyed the show this week.  Please consider joining me once again next Sunday from 4-7PM.

Have a good week!
