Howdy, Doug and all!
Kim, I was in NYC last night, so I have your archive cued up to accompany tomorrow morning's proofreading!
Avatar 6:03pm Mayuko:

Good evening Doug and everyone.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:04pm listener james from westwood:

Howdy, Mayuko! Your archive is on my Wed.-am playlist, too!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:04pm Doug Schulkind:

Greasy greetings, Kim!

Vertiginous greetings, Mayuko!

Luscious greetings, Listener James!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:07pm KimSorise:

Thank you James - I welcome your feedback

The Alex Campbell who is lead singing here is Ola Belle's younger brother. He is also shown at right in the photo at left.

Good evening and thank you, James! This music has been soothing for me tonight. And making me want to go travel and see more of the United States.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:19pm listener james from westwood:

I've never been through the winding ways of Appalachia myself. One could take a month and still need to make a list for one's next trip!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:25pm Doug Schulkind:

I'll ride shotgun, Listener James! You navigate from the middle of the front bench seat, Mayuko!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:29pm Doug Schulkind:

How do you make music heartbreaking and uplifting at the same time? You play an Ola Belle record.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:30pm listener james from westwood:

That vehicle's gonna have one kickass mix of music onboard!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:32pm Doug Schulkind:

Another thing I love Ola Belle for: She sings songs with lyrics written from a male perspective without changing the gender.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:39pm Doug Schulkind:

Along with My Epitaph, and High on a Mountain, this number is one of Ola Belle's most loved songs. (And the one to close tonight's show is, too. Of course.)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:48pm Doug Schulkind:

One of the oldest tunes in the old-time songbook. Going back many hundreds of years, back to the British Isles. Nick Tosches wrote a chapter about this number in... I forget which book.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:53pm Doug Schulkind:

Wonderful remake of the familiar tune St. James Infirmary here!

This one hour drive has gone away so quickly. Glad I got the seat.

I want to crawl up inside that banjo and cry.
