Christmas Waltz
Hi. I heard a song around 6:45am on 12/16/2010 called "Christmas Waltz" and would love to know what band/artist was singing it. Please let me know or share the playlist from the show. Thanks!!
Rise When the Rooster Crows
Does Fred Leeson still host Rise When the Rooster Crows? from I. Orav
4/15 PLAYLIST
Please share the playlist for yesterday, the 15th! I was listening to a song on my way to work, at about 5:56 am, and it has been stuck in my head ever since...not sure who it was though. THANKS! :)
The guys you had on this
The guys you had on this morning were absolutely unbelievably HOT!!!!! What is UP???The authenticity! The talent! The sheer historical knowledge.
"The Americans"
Thank you SO MUCH going to see em tonight AND tomorrow night in Portland at least!
Claire
Name of group/song
I've been looking for a playlist for the 10th of Sept. - I wanted to know the name of the group/song that you played at the very end of the program - the very last piece. I couldn't hear all of details - it sounded something like 'Wheels of the World'? Thanks!
Bryan
song you played
Rise When the Rooster Crows: I love your program, and try to wake up early just to listen, then go back to sleep. Love it!!!
On 4/16/09 you played a song that sang something like:
"How will I rock the cradle when I'm gone?"
I don't know who sang it or what the title really was but it had the most beautiful fiddle playing throughout that thrilled my heart. I want to buy an album by this group but have no clue. I looked on your playlist but it doesn't include that date.
If you don't know off the top of your head just leave it. I just want you to know you play the best music on the radio and can't be found anywhere else. Music sings to the depth of our soul. Sometimes the music you pick is just so beautiful it makes me want to cry happy tears.
Thanks,
Ellie









Awesome fiddle tune
Hi! I love your show! Could you tell me what fiddle tune played around 6:25 this morning? It was an instrumental and sounded sort of like a waltz.
Thanks!
Joy
