Playlist: Black Diamond Show 5/2/11 WNHU 88.7 FM West Haven CT & www.wnhu.net

Here's the playlist for the 5/2/11 show. Survey coming soon.

Most of my effort went into paying tribute to Hazel Dickens, one of the pioneering women of bluegrass.

The show will be replayed on the WNHU2 stream at www.wnhu.net from 9-11pm on Thursday.
