Playlist - 8/23/2014 plus a Fill-in

Hi Folks.

It seems all things eventually find equilibrium, and such was the case for this show.  Marti hosted last week's show solo while Jim was emceeing a festival, and Jim hosted this show solo while Marti attended a Wildlife Rehabilitator Cookout which Jim calls a Possum Convention.  Marti took her seven baby possums for show-and-tell and ended up wearing one for most of the day. See the photo.

We also had a four-hour show because we filled-in for Lady Mystique in the two hours prior to the usual Red Rooster Party.  Because of the extra time, you might notice the playlist reflects more deep catalog material from the early string bands than we usually have time to present.

Bradley Kincaid
Featured artists on this show were Bradley Kincaid (immortalized in Hylo Brown's "Grand Ole Opry Song" made famous by Jimmy Martin and The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band); Chet Atkins, Carter Sisters and Mother Maybelle; Bob Wills; Uncle Dave Macon; and Andy Griffith.  We also featured a set of ever popular train songs, a set of female vocalists by request, and a set of West Virginia string bands.

This was the last Red Rooster Party on the WHUS summer schedule.  The show will be moving back to its classic time slot on Sundays 2-4pm for the fall, but there will be heavy preemptions for UCONN tiddly winks sports.  The August 31 show may be preempted the first hour as a result.

Thanks for listening and hope you tune in next week.
