I'm a few days late in posting the playlist from Sunday's Bluegrass Cafe, but we'll still with the adage of better late than never...
During Sunday's show, we opened the request lines, and the requests poured in. We played as many as we could, and those songs are noted in the playlist in red.
On the first Sunday after Thanksgiving, we added some Bluegrass Christmas music to our weekly mix. As the season progresses, we will add more Christmas music each week -- some of it newly-released in 2021.
And we had a couple of Bluegrass folks to remember during this program, as well, as the Bluegrass community has recently lost two valued musicians. Bill Holden, a one-time member of both the Country Gentlemen and Bill Monroe's Blue Grass Boys, died on November 15th at the age of 71; and on November 21st, Jason Moore, a founding member of the group Sideline, among others, died suddenly at the age of just 47. To remember these gentlemen, we shared music from their recordings. May they rest in peace.
Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving, and we'll be looking for you once again this coming Sunday in our Bluegrass Cafe.
Have a good week!
