PLAYLIST TRADITIONS MAY 17, 2009

For any comments, queries, requests and misc. material I always appreciate your input. Just e mail wfdutraditions@yahoo.com

I am hoping that many of you heard my conversation with Theodore Bikel and found it as interesting as I did in having it with him.

While new CDs are usually not featured---as they are on some programs--there does come a time when a CD arrives that is so worthy of more interest than just one track being played and a brief announcement---a CD that once you own it you want to hear it over and over. This week a CD from Jim Photoglo arrived and it is the perfect example of what I am talking of. There have been others over the years--Kate Campbell, Susan Werner, anything by Appleseed Recordings (for which the idealistic JIM MUSSELMAN has to be thanked), and a few others.

OK you may ask why I did not mention Phil Ochs or Harry Chapin. Surely, you know why.

A few pictures now to put a face with the voice you heard this week:

JIM PHOTOGLO (has written for Dolly Parton, toured with Dan Fogelberg, appeared as a duo with FREEBO in many places --including the WFDU showcase at NERFA (n0t his biggest gig for sure)

SUSAN WERNER (Who will be an artist appearing at the Carnegie Hall Bday Bash for Theodore Bikel)
