Thanks to everyone who called in during the show. Also, keep the email requests coming because they help when I'm trying to narrow down the playlist before I do my show. Lastly, thanks to all the listeners who keep sending me postcards from abroad. I like them so much that I've started putting them on my wall. Do me a favor and help me cover my wall before my show's 1 year anniversary. If you need a mailing address just check out the radio station's contact information. Peace and love, Ross.

Playlist Tracks
Louis Armstrong
"Give Peace A Chance"
Louis Armstrong and His Friends
Bluebird First Edition
NOMS hosts Tom Morgan and George Ingmire turned me onto this album. It's a great mix of eclectic cuts by Louis Armstrong.
Otis Redding
"Wonderful World"
Otis Blue
Stax
There's something very eerie in listening to Otis sing Sam Cooke's songs.
Bruce Springsteen and The Seeger Sessions Band
"Eyes on the Prize"
We Shall Overcome
I really like the horns on this track. Something about that sound that rings of old New Orleans. Another great email request from a listener abroad.
Hank Williams
"When God Comes And Gathers His Jewels"
I Saw The Light
Sonny Terry
"Worried Blues"
Guy Clark
"Worry B Gone"

I just started listening to a bunch of Guy Clark after seeing him in the new Townes Van Zandt documentary and Heartworn Highways.
The Black Keys
"Strange Desire"
Your Touch - EP
Nonesuch
2006
These guys just keep cranking out albums. They're making their way to NOLA to play at the HOB with Dr. Dog. Tix go on sale 9/9
Mayor
"Small Town"
Searching for the Wrong Eyed Jesus Soundtrack
An inspiring docudrama of the South with Jim White as your Odysseus. Highly recommend checking it out.
Theresa Andersen
"Lorraine's Song"
Shine
Basin Street
She's got a new self-titled EP with a reworked version of "Fine Line." Also, she covers Madonna's "Borderline" and strips down the production quality to give you that "in your living room feel."
Rosetta Howard
"Men are like street cars"
Women Blues Singers
I guess this song doesn't really fit unless the streetcars are running in the city
Magic Sam
"All Of Your Love"
West Side Soul
Earl Hooker
"Two Bugs and a Roach"
Two Bugs and a Roach
Where ya at, Dean?
Harry Crews

Joe Callicot
"Laughin' to Keep From Cryin'"
Ain't A Gonna Lie To You
Fat Possum
Last time I checked SoundScan this album has yet to sell 2,000 records and it's so freaking good. Of all the George Mitchell recordings released by Fat Possum, this is my favorite and the album speaks for itself.
OCMS
"CC Rider"
World Cafe Presents OCMS
New Album coming out soon
Ray Lamontagne
"Barfly"
Til the Sun Turns Black
RCA
