[JPL] PLAYLIST: "General Eclectic", WCVF-FM, 2/20/09

[Tom Bingham]

 Lots of listener response today, starting off early with the slide-guitar
opener by Kraig Kenning. A couple "golden oldies" generated calls - Harry
Belafonte from 1955, and Trixie Smith (with Louis Armstrong) from 1925. Joe
Pug attracted attention from student listeners; I've long since stopped
calling anyone "the new Dylan", but Joe Pug certainly fits the bill. Blues
duo Paul Rishell and Annie Raines, on National and harmonica, picked up new
fans. And the Balkan brass band sound of Brass Menazeri got listener's toes
tapping as well. My personal favorite came from veteran salsa band Sonora
Poncena, still going strong after half-century. To the list:
