Hi Folks.

We were preempted 45 minutes, but we got all of Joe Bussard's 68th show, and 15 minutes more of great rare music.

Prior to Joe, I played some real Florida blues by Richard Williams, a blues man recorded in 1978 by the Florida Folklife Collection.  The CD is available throught the State Library and Archives of Florida.  Also heard was the flip side of The Bailey Brothers' single "Happy Valley Special" (which Joe play last week) titled "Rattlesnake Daddy Blues."  

Then we heard a rare 45 I dubbed from Joe Bussard when I visited last week by The Country Boys -- the pre-1961 name of The Kentucky Colonels with Clarence and Roland White, recorded 1961.

Joe Bussard took it from there.  You can hear his show again at this link.




Tune in next Sunday for another great listen into our musical history.
