A Sense of Tradition

10 p.m. to Midnight Host: Steve Winters

With one exception, these selections come from new CD releases - some of old material and some of new, but almost all with an overriding tone of traditional music. The first hour focuses on photographer/musician/song collector John Cohen's new album of traditional reissues and then takes off through a web of connections with Cohen, David Grisman and Jerry Garcia. The second hour moves largely into traditional music from the other side of the Atlantic. The night ends with a beautiful melding of Scandinavia's Vasen and Ireland's Dervish.
