WFDU-FM's TRADITIONS Playlist for August 2, 2009

The day was brightened with a visit from Joe Jencks and Mara Levine.  Joe shared his incredible new CD that he is about to release - and I'm betting it will be on many playlists by the time Joe releases it to the Folk DJ list.  Mara Levine is a "new" voice that I hope many people will become aware of. She also shares her love for making gorgeous jewelry, hence the title of her new recording "Mara's Gems".

 

A plethora of exciting new CD's-  topped by Jonathan Edwards latest - "Rollin' Along".  A real powerful live recording from one of the finest acoustic performers around!

Also new & recommend – Arlo Guthrie “Tales of 69”,  Nathan Rogers “Moving Mountains”(a powerful singer-writer and dynamic performer!),

 

(Tune in to TRADITIONS every Sunday from 3 to 6pm Eastern Time over WFDU-FM 89.1 in the NYC/Northern New Jersey area or on the web at www.wfdu.fm.  A Sing Out! Radio Partner )
