Joe Bussard decided to do an all-bluegrass show for this day, so I matched him with some similarly rare or unusual or local bluegrass.

My selections included one of Joe's own recordings - one of the first with John Duffey on Joe's own Fonotone label. We also heard local New England bluegrass pioneers Bill Hall and Randy Hawkins as The Bluegrass Travelers, and Al Hawkes and Fred Pike together on Al's Event label.

I also played music from my own home area of Cabarrus County NC by The Jones Brothers & The Log Cabin Boys. Also a single from A.G. & Kate from Holland with help from Don Stover and Red Rector.



Barring any sports preemptions, we will be back next Sunday 2-4pm on WHUS with another great show of deep catalog country music. We hope you choose to tune in.
