Hey there, Derek and Dusters! Looking forward to the show. Going to have it on while cooking so just clicky-star everything for me, OK?

There are random ones in the mix that will cause your house to be subject to a drone strike when clicked however. But they are all in the previous playlist and belong to eBay

Oh wow, I've clearly missed a lot in my time away. I don't know when this High Lonesome Radio thing started on Mondays, but I'm glad for it (and it takes the sting out of losing ARB in this slot a while back).

Hi Derek, I really enjoyed last week's show! I didn't know 9 year olds could sing.

I like this show, Derek. I also like where it is on the schedule. Usually, I cook while listening to Mark, then eat my dinner while listening to Dust on the Decks. That's a nice routine!
Avatar 7:10pm
derekpiotr:

that seems like a good routine to me, too.

this is the pre-kingston tom dula that was part of local oral tradition in eastern TN/western NC before the revival monsters got ahold of it

Ironic or a happy coincidence that Surface Noise and Dust on the Decks air on the same day.

I couldn't help hearing it as, "Who killed Laura Palmer?"

If Tom made that joke, he totally did it

A man capable of that level of dad joke at that moment is capable of anything

@derekpiotr I like Frank Proffitt's take on Tom Dooley, as well.

Possibly related to this show, but I just found a professor of mine, Art Rosenbaum just passed. He was pretty active as a field recorder. pitchfork.com...

Old Dave:

Very cool! Their vinyl vault was unsurpassed when I was a Ferrum College student.
So weird, I actually sang At My Window for the Japanese Ambassador to the Philippines
a couple years later in Peace Corps... it got me nowhere, but that guy wanted to learn every verse.
One never knows!

I was trying to think of an appropriate comment, I think the best is that this is a very powerful show. Very personal songs.

Interesting.
The other KY politician well known for playing folk music was Bill Cornett. He went out in style. I like to think they don't make them like this guy anymore:
