Here's the playlist for the July 4th Black Diamond Show on WNHU. It's not all patriotic music -- but it's all good stuff! Perhaps more old-time than you'd expect, but I really like some of those old fiddle tunes.
Thanks to Scott Anderson and his daughter Amanda for being such gracious guests during the 2nd half-hour of the show. Not often you can get hot banjo tunes out of your neighborhood pharmacist! :-)
One of these days, I'll get around to archiving these interviews we've been doing.... And as long as I'm typing an administrative comment.... I'm going to discontinue my attempts to get you to complete a survey each week about the newer bluegrass music. Most weeks, I'd get 0-1 responses.... Instead, just drop me an email to let me know if there's anything you've heard that you really liked!
Thanks for your support of WNHU and Bluegrass and traditional country music!
