Some brief commemorations for various people and events today as you may well have realized---Pete Seeger (who is wished a most enjoyable 92d --I believe--and your truly. A segment for Yom Hashoah --and Sunday Simcha did end with a Benediction. We also mourn the loss of some wonderful people this week---Hazel Dickens and Phoebe Snow and some unfinished business from the Phil Ochs segment of two weeks prior. The new material was, as it is so many times just wonderful and showing us that this music of meaning and rhythm is alive and well. More comments on this matter on this Thursday's column.
One last note---if you were listening you will note that some pieces at the end are not listed---technical problem in the studio. You can, as always, listen to the archive for 2 weeks at http://www.wfdu.fm/ ---where we do stream on the web with the express permission of our urologist.
Some faces to put with today's voices:
The commemoration of Yom Hashoah by a great voice and human being:
The proper spelling is Kaddish---an error by the person submitting the video.
Aside from being a great artist in his own right Andrew Calhoun has a great piece here---you will hear it on Traditions at some time:
