- There are few entertainment institutions that have experienced the longevity of the Grand Ole Opry. The format of the show has remained virtually the same since it’s inception in 1925. The stars that have passed across the Opry stage could fill a book with only a listing of their names. |

- I have mixed feelings on the new book True To The Roots: Americana Music Revealed, written by veteran NASCAR columnist Monte Dutton. Dutton notes in the introduction of the book that he had originally wanted the subtitle for the book to me The Invincible Music of Americana.” I wish they had stuck with that one. |

- Riverside Battle Songs by Ollabelle (Verve Forecast)—If you’re a serious roots music lover—I mean serious in a National Public Radio way—this CD is a must have.

- There is a beautiful sound rising up from the outskirts of Richmond , Virginia and that sound is accompanied by the aroma of fresh brewed coffee. Ashland Coffee and Tea first opened their doors ten years ago, and as the name implies, it started out as a place to find a great cup of fresh brewed java. These days not only is Ashland Coffee and Tea serving up fine hot beverages, as well as great soups and sandwiches, it also has become home to one of Virginia’s premier listening rooms for live music and many of the artists which grace the stage are from the wonderful world that we call Americana. So come on in, grab a seat, turn off that cell phone and keep the conversation to a minimum, because the music is about to begin. |

- Paul Mark the Van Dorens’ Trick Fiction arrived on the right week, because my wife and sons were gone. I took Mark’s CD out of the mailbox, slapped it into the CD player, cranked the stereo because that’s what you can do when you’re home alone, and then Mark cried out with a blues guitar and a lyric shout that met me perfectly for where I was at: “When my wife went home to her mother/Boys, I turned it up a notch/Seven days living on nothing but/Fritos, BBQ, and Scotch.” |

- 1966 was a pivotal year in music in general and Bob Dylan’s music specifically. Albums such as the Beach Boys’ Pet Sounds, Simon and Garfunkels’ Sounds of Silence made their way into the conscious of America while the Beatles continued to captive audiences worldwide. In that year, Dylan continued his move to electrification by kicking of a World Tour in May of that year. |

- In September, singer-songwriter Sandra McCracken released her seventh album, Gravity|Love, a collection of songs from the heart that will get you thinking with their breathtaking beauty, but also singing along after one listen. She is currently touring to support the album and she was gracious enough to take the time to talk with us a little about life, songwriting and the new album. |

- The first thing I noticed about Sunny Sweeny was her East Texas accent. It reminded me a bit of Natalie Maines of the Dixie Chicks. I'm glad I didn't let my initial prejudice get in the way of listening to the whole album, though, as Sweeney puts out a compellingly sweet and swinging album of Texas-style honky tonk. |
