    Cool. Do you take requests?

  2. Jesse Walker   16 years ago

    Do you take requests?

    Sure. I'll check this thread periodically.

    On Saturday mornings I like to tune in to WAIF Cincinnati for the Cuttin' the Grass Bluegrass show. (Although it's not what it used to be.)
    At your time-slot, WAIF shall have moved on to gay-lesbian programming, which is also good.
    Keep in mind Ann Arbor is a loong way from "down home." The Queen City is just across the river. I was born and raised in Music City, TN.

    If we make it through December, Merle Haggard

  5. Mr. Chartreuse   16 years ago

    You Win Again, Hank Williams
    Fingerprints, Patsy Cline

  6. twv   16 years ago

    DARK AS A DUNGEON. I wouldn't mind hearing several versions.

    Trouble is, I'm not sure I can sit through the whole program... C&W ain't my strong suit. Most C&W is like most rock and roll: People who can't sing singing about things not worth singing about.

  7. Tyler   16 years ago

    Hank-Lost Highway

    Or play some Hank covers by the Norwegian band Hank's a lot: http://www.hanksalot.com/musikk.php

    Vern Gosdin passed away a couple of days ago, but I don't know any of his stuff to recommend.

    Other request:
    Hank III - Low Down
    Wayne Hancock - Gonna be flyin tonight, This lonely night, Miller, Jack and Mad Dog
    Old Crow Medicine Show - Methamphetamine
    Bill Monroe - Blue Moon of Kentucky
    Roy Acuff - Night train to Memphis

  8. Jesse Walker   16 years ago

    Thanks, everyone. I'll play at least some of those songs.

    Tyler: I've been planning to play a duet Vern Gosdin did with Tammy Wynette, though I don't own any of his records myself so I'm counting on a fellow DJ's assurance that we have a copy at the station.

  9. Mr. Chartreuse   16 years ago

    Hah, "I Ain't Goin' Nowhere" is great!

  10. Jesse Walker   16 years ago

    I've posted the playlist here.
