Bill Monroe and the Memphis Jug Band help us celebrate Monday’s autumn equinox, and we hear a new release by an Irish fiddler who’s acquired a current reputation based on old field recordings. Lefty Frizzell, Kitty Wells, Charlie Monroe, the Stanley Brothers and Bob Wills join the poceedings to make perfect music for watching the golden leaves begin to fall. We won’t even think about raking them until later on.
