What a nice surprise.

What a nice surprise. For years public radio in SoCal (specifically KPFK) had two major attractions for me. Amy Goodman and bluegrass music. I used to schedule my Saturdays around KPFK for the music scheduled from 6am til noon. It was the only way to hear new country/folk/bluegrass music on the radio. I heard a lot of talent I would never have heard of but for KPFK. Then little by little the schedules were trimmed and changed until a few years ago the powers that were decided music was to be de-emphasized to the credit of 'ethnic news'. Boring! Now all the great music was gone. Then this morning for some reason I turned it on again. There was a female DJ playing Jim & Jesse! I hope it's permanent. It's the kind of music I really love.
Rick & Deb will be here about noon and off we go to Fallbrook and a turkey dinner.
Jim & Jesse are proof that we're all on this flight together.
