Playlist - 11/23/2014 - Jim's Parents' 65th Anniversary

Jim's Parents 11/23/1949

Hi Folks.

This edition of Red Rooster Party took place on the 65th anniversary of Jim's parents, both of whom still live in North Carolina.  To salute them, we played a group of songs that would have been on the radio 65 years ago (1949) by The Carter Sisters with Mother Maybelle and Chet Atkins.

We also had fun with super guitarists Merle Travis, Doc Watson, and Chet Atkins by playing duets with Chet and Merle and Chet and Doc.

Kenny Roberts

There was a short version of Marti's Bunkhouse with Western songs, and a special set of Kenny Roberts recordings.

The remainder of the show was great music from the 1940s and 1950s.

Tune in next Sunday at 2pm ET for another great show featuring our musical heritage.

Playlist - 11/16/2014 - African-American Ballads

Hi Folks,

Lead Belly (Huddie Leadbetter)

Today's show consisted of ballads, or songs that tell a story, from the African-American tradition.  Barry Pearson who wrote the liner notes to the Smithsonian Folkways release "Classic African-American Ballads" says "The African-American ballad-making era spanned roughly forty years, from 1885 to 1925, peaking between 1890 and 1910. Ballads were composed before 1885 and continued to be composed after 1925, but the major body of recognized ballads, especially those that became traditional, come from this period."

Many of the black ballads are intertwined with white musical traditions and the origin for some cannot be pinpointed to one or the other -- the music belongs to both.  The recognition of that sharing of musical tradition was much of the point of today's show.

We hope you enjoyed.

Playlist - 11/2/2014 - Trains, Love, Lust, etc.

Hi Folks,

We had no spurts preemption today and therefore had a full show.

The first half of the show was a reprise of sorts of the late night fill-in (see "Red Rooster Train Depot" entry) that Jim did early Saturday morning with a few changes.  We have just scratched the surface of the list of train song recordings, and we have plenty more for future shows.



The second half of the show included Canadian singer Kayla Hotte & Her Rodeo Pals, very very early recordings from black musicians, a couple of sets from the Dust-To-Digital set covering Love, Lust, and Contempt (though we didn't get to contempt), Mount Airy favorite Rafe Brady, and a good sampling of The South Carolina Broadcasters -- a great old-time group from Mount Airy, NC -- who just announced new member Anna Roberts-Gevalt.

We hope you enjoyed what you heard.  Tune in next Sunday (spurts notwithstanding) for some more great obsolete music.
