During Sunday's unseasonably warm January day (60+ degrees!), it seemed appropriate to start off our Bluegrass Café with a song about summer. That the song was written by prolific songwriter Randall Hylton (born January 8, 1945) happened to inspire the playing of several other Hylton-penned tunes -- all dandies. It seemed a good way to start off the program -- hope you enjoyed it!
We also celebrated the birth anniversary of a Country Music Hall of Famer who never recorded a Bluegrass song, but who has definitely had songs from his vast songbook get covered by Bluegrass performers many, many times. Ray Price was born on January 12, 1926, so why not celebrate with Ray Price covers by the Nashville Bluegrass Band, Jim & Jesse, IIIrd Tyme Out, the Johnson Mountain Boys, Union Springs, and Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver?
There wasn't much in the way of new music to share this week, but we did share a couple of songs from a CD single of new music to come in 2020 from Dale Ann Bradley & Tina Adair, Steve Thomas & the Time Machine, and Remington Ryde.
Hope you enjoyed the show -- and the beautiful day! -- and we will look for you again next Sunday afternoon, 4-7PM.
Enjoy the week!
