"Bluegrass Cafe" playlist - 8/18/2019

During Sunday's Bluegrass Cafe, we shared some new music, gave away a CD, and remembered a Country Music Legend on what would have been his 90th birthday.  Hope you were able to join us!  

Happy Birthday to Buck Owens!
(shown here with his classic grouping of Buckaroos, circa mid-1960s).

At the center of the program was a 12-song salute to Buck Owens -- a Country Music Hall of Famer who would have turned 90-years-old on August 12th.  Buck must have been a favorite of a whole lot of Bluegrass performers, as over the years, many of his songs have been recorded in a Bluegrass style.  In addition to hearing covers of Buck tunes, we also had two selections from Buck himself, one of which was a track from his 1971 "Bluegrass" album:  "Ruby And Other Bluegrass Specials."  

Newer music hit our WHUS airwaves on Sunday, too, as we played a couple of tunes from a new EP by 2019 Bluegrass Hall of Famer Bill Emerson (with his son, Billy Emerson):  "414."  Other new music played came from the Chuck Wagon Gang, Backline, Blue Highway, and the Songs From The Road Band.

Hope you were able to join us this week, but if not, you'll have another chance to listen next Sunday, 4-7PM.

Enjoy the week!
