Playlist - 1/24/2016 - First Show in New Time Slot

Hi Folks.

We have moved to the Sunday morning time slot 7am to 9am for the spring semester at UCONN. This is because of the difficulty carrying on a show with frequent and ugly sports preemptions in the afternoon slot.  We seemed to catch many new listeners at the new time slot, so we hope a whole new group of listeners get to enjoy our mix of old hillbilly, classic country, gospel, and country blues recordings, as well as Joe Bussard's excellent Country Classics program. We expect to move back to the Sunday afternoon slot during the summer.

J. E. Mainer, Jr., the son of the great 1930s fiddler and a good friend of mine, celebrated his 92nd birthday January 22nd, so we had a musical celebration of sorts playing some of his 1946 and 1963 recordings made with his father, and a five minute interview I recorded sometime over the past ten years.

Welcome to all you new listeners!  We hope our long-time listeners get the word and tune in at the earlier time on their Sunday mornings.

Join us Sunday, the 31st, at 7am for our next program.  Joe Bussard will join the program at 8:30am.  You can hear Joe's show for this week here.
