During our Bluegrass Cafe on this last Sunday of October, we celebrated several Bluegrass (and Bluegrass-friendly) birthdays. As Halloween is less than one week away, we also shared a whole bunch of Bluegrass ghost stories. Boo!
The birthdays celebrated included those of Bluegrassers Eric Gibson, Larry Stephenson, and Bob Amos, and country singer Dwight Yoakam. In addition, we remembered "everybody's favorite Grandpa," Grandpa Jones (born Lewis Marshall Jones: October 20, 1913 - February 19, 1998).
Lots of folks always enjoy hearing ghost and spooky stories, especially this time of year. In the world of Bluegrass, there have been many spooky songs recorded over the years, and for this show, we pulled together nearly a dozen of them. Hope you weren't too scared to listen. :)
During these COVID-19 days of home-produced shows, don't forget you can still get in touch with me with requests and such. All you have to do is send email to bgcafe@gmail.com or check out our Bluegrass Cafe Facebook page: www.facebook.com/WHUS.BluegrassCafe
Hope you have a wonderful week, and that you'll consider joining me once again next Sunday afternoon, 4-7PM.
Have a good week, and stay healthy!
