"Bluegrass Cafe" playlist - 1/17/2021

Our Bluegrass Cafe on this day was mainly one to celebrate birthdays, and there were a passel of them!  Those celebrating birthdays included Bluegrass Hall of Famers Charlie Waller and Bill Emerson, as well as Country Music Hall of Famers Dolly Parton and Phil Everly, and West Virginia Hall of Famer Walter Bailes.  If you celebrate your birthday in mid-January, Happy Birthday wishes to you, too!

Last week, we received in the mail a big box of CDs that have been sent to to the WHUS studios since mid-March 2020.  We're working our way through some of those CDs now, and trying to play catch-up.  On this broadcast, we shared two songs each from four CDs that had been sent to WHUS last year, but that had received limited airplay during our "home-made" COVID shows:  "My Best Friend" by Jay Armsworthy & Eastern Tradition (Patuxent Music); "Ronnie Bowman" by Ronnie Bowman (Engelhardt Music Group); "Fiddler's Pastime" by Bronwyn Keith-Hynes (Self-Produced); and "Bridges And Backroads" by Jerry Salley (Very Jerry Records).  We'll check out a few more 2020 CDs in future weeks of our continued home-produced program.  

This week's show also included three new recordings for 2021 from the likes of Williamson Branch, Carolyn Eyerly, and Chris Jones & the Night Drivers.

Thanks, as always, for listening, and be sure to check in with a request or comment, if you're so inclined.  Email can be sent to bgcafe@gmail.com and our Facebook page can be found at www.Facebook.com/WHUS.BluegrassCafe.

Have a good week, and stay healthy!
