As I looked over my notes, I realized that I'd played a lot of title tracks to albums today. Not sure that that means anything. Bryan added a good tune by 3 Fox Drive (formerly the Fox Family) at the 1pm break today. Good choice! Here's the playlist.

Carolina Chocolate Drops in Norfolk, CT on Th 2/3
The Carolina Chocolate Drops will be appearing at Infinity Hall in Norfolk on Thursday, February 3. Great old-time music--with an emphasis on material derived from old African-American string bands. If you get a chance to hear them, do so. I'll play some of their music on the Jan 31 edition of the Black Diamond Show so you can hear 'em. Or visit their web site! Or check out one of their YouTube videos!

Playlist: Black Diamond Show 1/17/11, WNHU 88.7 FM West Haven, CT, and www.wnhu.net
Today's show features an interview with the Honey Dewdrops, appearing in New Haven at the Public Library on Wed 1/19. (See a previous blog posting for more information. Full interview [51.5 Mb mp3 file])
But there's plenty of other good music in today's show, too. I always crack up when the Stanley Brothers do their "turn the cow" routine. . . . And, yes, in the last half-hour, you indeed hear what bluegrass sounds like in Dutch. The show also includes a track from Randy Burns who used to sing all over Southern CT but now plies his trade in New York. As I was digitizing old records a couple of weeks ago, I ran across a Wild Aspargus LP--and yes, they are still playing for contra dances in Western MA and occasionally across the US. And the show closes down with one of my favorite Louvin Brothers' Songs. So I hope it has a little something for everyone!
Thanks, as always, for your support.

Two upcoming concerts in CT: Honey Dewdrops; Carolina Chocolate Drops
Usually on the Black Diamond Show, I refer you to the list of Selected Bluegrass and Old-Time Music links to the right hand side of this blog to find what's going on. As of 1/9/11, the CTBMA concert listing was missing two concerts that I think BDS listeners would enjoy.
First, The Honey Dewdrops will be touring in New England this month. The CTBMA lists their stop in Hartford at the Firebox on Sunday 1/16, but doesn't list their stop in New Haven on Wednesday, January 19, at the New Haven Public Library, 133 Elm Street, at 6:30 pm. An interview with Laura and Kagey will appear on the 1/17 Black Diamond Show. Here's the info from the Library's Calendar: Jan 19, 2011, 6:30 PM, Ives Library (Main). "The Honey Dewdrops (husband and wife team of Kagey Parrish and Laura Wortman) in concert! Winners of the 2008 Prairie Home Companion Talent Show. Focusing on vocal harmonies and tight instrumentation."
Second, the Carolina Chocolate Drops will be appearing at Infinity Hall in Norfolk on Thursday, February 3. Great old-time music--with a lot of material derived from old African-American string bands.
Both acts are superb performers. Highly recommended.
