The show opens with recent bluegrass versions of Statler Brothers country numbers, just the latest manifestation of bluegrass affirming its connections with country. On the Gem of Bluegrass, a look at the unexpected evolutionary path of the song There is a Time. In the second half hour, we present a Dock Boggs postscript. Tony Trischka, the standard-setting progressive banjoist is on hand to talk about Boggs and how he was inspired by Boggs. Before we are done today, we return to the thesis of former guest Jerry Barney, and play happy-sounding, sad songs. To contact host Phil Nusbaum, the email address is pnusbaum@bitstream.net.
