Black Diamond Show on WNHU: 2nd Anniversary Playlist!

This week's show marks the 2nd anniversary of the Black Diamond Show on WNHU! Thanks to Bryan Lane, station manager, the University of New Haven, and all the student staff for helping make this show possible!

This week's show contains a mixture of old favorites and new favorites. April Verch's new CD is pretty darn good! We play her version of Durang's Hornpipe, a combination of an American and a Canadian version. Great stuff.

Thanks, as always, for your support of bluegrass, old-time, and other traditional country music--and of WNHU!
