"Bluegrass Cafe" playlist - 6/5/2022

Nearly one-half of all of the songs we shared during Sunday's Bluegrass Cafe were played in celebration of someone's birthday.  We also included some newer music during our three-hour program, so hope you were able to join us.

Most of the selections played during Hour #1 of Sunday's show were written and/or co-written by the late power couple of Tom T. Hall (May 25, 1936 - August 20, 2021) and Miss Dixie Hall (May 26, 1934 - January 16, 2015).  The songs they wrote together or separately are noted in green bold print on the  playlist below.  To say these two late members of the Bluegrass Hall of Fame were prolific songwriters seems a bit of an understatement, and in truth, we could easily fill the whole three hours with songs written by only them.  On Sunday, we just limited ourselves to one hour.

There were lots of early June birthdays to celebrate, too, including those of Hazel Dickens, Suzanne Cox, Tony Rice, Clarence White, Charlie Cline, Jamie Dailey, and even the lead singer and main songwriter of the Statler Brothers, Don Reid.

Newer music was heard was heard, as well, from the likes of Lorraine Jordan & Carolina Road, Laura Orshaw, Authentic Unlimited, Rick Lang, the Po' Ramblin' Boys, and Peter Rowan.

Hope you were able to join us on Sunday, but if not, you'll have another chance this weekend.  We'll see you at 4PM.

Enjoy the week!
