American Pastimes - February 20, 2024

On American Pastimes there's folk, bluegrass, acoustic blues, folk-rock, and more. A couple of live Doc Watson cuts, slide-guitarist Doug Adamz, a set of Country Joe McDonald tunes (including the original Fixin' to Die Rag - jug band style), a wax cylinder and old 78's from 1896(!) to 1928, The Be Good Tanya's, folkie Jackie Washington (eviscerating Bob Dylan in song), and a couple of home-grown former Chicoans; dobroist Sally Van Meter and fiddler J'Anna Jacoby. And there's a song dedicated to Community Radio KKFI 90.1 FM in Kansas City in the wake the gun violence that took the life of their volunteer programmer.
