With Krista

Memorial Day, with a couple songs about morning/mourning

This week I'll be playing a few songs about mourning, as always, and talking about groups of veterans from WW2 who were not given their due honors until very recently. The other songs of the day will be a mix of things from around the world. Thai watusi and a Thai bollywood cover show up, along with Estonian songs and American hip hop.

You, too, Mark!

Good morning.

Good morning, Brian!

I've got a small skylight in my office and I can see a cloudy sky.

Ready for sunlight here

Iron & Wine fits so nicely. Sun wants to peek through now

I really enjoy this archive series. The more stripped down songs of theirs are my favorite, showcasing his beautiful voice and lyrics.

This is a nice set.

The bluegrass earlier made me seek out the sheet music for Hangman's Reel. Great tune. Never learned that. Lot of fun to play

The story behind it is weird and convoluted

people always making deals with fiddles

the dildine family was a group of...puppeteers who released songs to go with their puppet plays

very bloody sounding children's production it seems

An awesome and especially powerful show for Memorial Day. I may have missed it (been walking in & out of room where my radio is) but if not ... Patrick Sky, an acclaimed folk singer/songwriter of the 1960s & beyond died this past Wed. May 26. Sky had both Irish & Native American heritage. His song "The Ballad of Ira Hayes" about a heroic Native Amer. WW 2 U.S. Marine, who was part of the iconic image "Raising the flag on Iwo Jima" but died of alcoholism, remains a poignant but hard hitting song.

The planned show closer, Richard!

Most excellent! THANK YOU!!!

Good day yall
