Hey Rusty.....have just listened to tonights show...some great stuff much of which i had not heard! Of course Matty Groves is a great Fairport tune and i was lucky enough to catch them a few years ago at their annual Cropredy Festival...still going strong! Thanks for playing Gillian Welch and Dave Rawlings last time out and if this slots into your general remit I think your listeners would love it! Maybe preface it with " DO NOT poke with a stick and play LOUD!" Ray Willie Hubbard...Snake Farm! A great music station and thanks for the heads up !
Loving the new show, full of great music selections, keep up the good work, Rusty!
Thank you! Appreciate your comment! Enjoy sharing the music of artists that, otherwise, might not receive notice.
