Great stuff here- The I Sang the Song album is a wonderful project. Mac sure was slim in his younger days; I always assumed he was a larger man his entire time singing bluegrass.

Day 1525 #CDsOnTheShelf #MusicChallenge #MusicSky #bluegrass Josh Williams- he's been around bluegrass almost as long as I've been listening.

Took 33 years but finally got a copy of Donald Fagen’s “Kamakiriad” from 1993. Very well produced album with Walter Becker and featuring “Snowbound” which I first saw/heard on MTV summer of ‘93.

Day 1524 #CDsOnTheShelf #MusicChallenge #MusicSky #bluegrass Wildfire was a hell of a band- still is, last I heard. Apparently the James Hemenway CD is very misfiled.

One of the fantastic CDs I picked up today. Includes "Hot Rod Lincoln." The Twangbangers feature Hightone label mates Bill Kirchen, Redd Volkaert, Dallas Wayne, and Joe Goldmark, along with Kirchen’s rhythm section, Johnny and Jack.

Day 1529 #CDsOnTheShelf #MusicChallenge #MusicSky #bluegrass I don't remember much about these. Sorry. A few more days of the bluegrass and then we'll go maybe to the soul/r&b shelf before circling back to various compilations and tributes.

Day 1526 #CDsOnTheShelf #MusicChallenge #MusicSky #bluegrass Paul Humphrey is an all-timer. How is he not in the Bluegrass Hall of Fame? Oh, he is. Never mind. Heck of a singer and bandleader.

Day 1522 #CDsOnTheShelf #MusicChallenge #MusicSky #bluegrass Marshall Wilborn is one of bluegrass music's (many) good guys, and the Wild Blue Yonder album was pretty good as I recall. Whitehouse was a bit of a supergroup, I believe.

Day 1521 #CDsOnTheShelf #MusicChallenge #MusicSky #bluegrass I need to give Dennis White another listen b/c I recall really enjoying this one 25 or so years ago. Jeff White- no slouch himself.

Day 1520 #CDsOnTheShelf #MusicChallenge #MusicSky #bluegrass As the IBMA fest wraps up, coincidence thqt I've Been Mostly Awake is featured today. I believe Jon W produced at least one of the Missy Werner CDs, too.

Day 1511 #CDsOnTheShelf #MusicChallenge #MusicSky #bluegrass Squeezing in some CANCON because I forgot to photograph them with the non-CANCON CD covers as they came off the shelf. Three pretty good albums here although only one of these recordings is mostly bluegrass. Bella's dad's CD is excellent.
