"Bluegrass Cafe" playlist - 7/14/2019

Happy 90th Birthday, Jesse McReynolds!

Sunday's Bluegrass Cafe featured a whole bunch of birthday celebrants, and at the top of the list was a living legend and member of the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame:  Jesse McReynolds (born July 9, 1929).  Among the other folks who celebrated birthdays that we celebrated this week:  Rhonda Vincent, Mike Barber (a/k/a "The Third Gibson Brother"), Ricky Skaggs, Wayne Taylor, and banjo picker Richard Underwood who worked for many years with the Johnson Mountain Boys.  Happy Birthday wishes to all!

July 9th also marked the day of passing for an important midwest member of the Bluegrass community:  Bill Grant.  With the late Delia Bell, Grant made some fabulous recordings over the years, and we shared a couple of them on Sunday.

There was a bit of newer music to share during the program, too, with selections from the Seldom Scene, Dede Wyland, Carolina Blue, and Big Country Bluegrass, as well as a brand-new recording from resophonic guitar man, Roger Williams.  

Hope you enjoyed the show, and you are cordially invited to join me once again next Sunday from 4-7PM for another edition of our Bluegrass Cafe.

Have a good week!
