Six tunes heard tonight that are worthy of a spotlight:
KAFM (Grand Junction, CO)
- Gillian's Reel/Charles Sutherland/Donald Stewart The Piper (featuring Violet Tulloch)-Aly Bain (Spirited Scottish fiddling.)
WAER-HD2 (Syracuse, NY)
- Imagination-Joe Williams (Sincerely sung lyrics about unlikely-to-be-fulfilled longing.)
- We Will Meet Again-Herbie Mann (A great, sensitively played guitar intro leads into Mann's flute playing.)
WERS (Boston, MA)
- Wild Horses-The Sundays (Harriet Wheeler's vocals float over the instrumentation in this cover of a Rolling Stones tune, giving it an ethereal feel.)
WOMM (Burlington, VT)
- Effie's Song-Jennings & McComber (Heartfelt lyrics, vocals, and acoustic pickin'. This reminds me of Troubadours Of Divine Bliss.)
WSUM (Madison, WI)
- On-Kelly Lee Owens (Strong techno pop; appealingly breathy vocals over a hypnotic beat.)
