Program: Archived Playlist for Ross O`Keefe

Thanks to everyone who called in during the show. Also, keep the email requests coming because they help when I'm trying to narrow down the playlist before I do my show. Lastly, thanks to all the listeners who keep sending me postcards from abroad. I like them so much that I've started putting them on my wall. Do me a favor and help me cover my wall before my show's 1 year anniversary. If you need a mailing address just check out the radio station's contact information. Peace and love, Ross.

Playlist Tracks

Louis Armstrong
Give Peace A Chance
Louis Armstrong and His Friends
Bluebird First Edition

NOMS hosts Tom Morgan and George Ingmire turned me onto this album. It's a great mix of eclectic cuts by Louis Armstrong.
Otis Redding
Wonderful World
Otis Blue
Stax

There's something very eerie in listening to Otis sing Sam Cooke's songs.
Bruce Springsteen and The Seeger Sessions Band
Eyes on the Prize
We Shall Overcome

I really like the horns on this track. Something about that sound that rings of old New Orleans. Another great email request from a listener abroad.
Hank Williams
When God Comes And Gathers His Jewels
I Saw The Light
Sonny Terry
Worried Blues
Guy Clark
Worry B Gone
Workbench Songs

I just started listening to a bunch of Guy Clark after seeing him in the new Townes Van Zandt documentary and Heartworn Highways.
The Black Keys

2006

These guys just keep cranking out albums. They're making their way to NOLA to play at the HOB with Dr. Dog. Tix go on sale 9/9
Mayor
Small Town
Searching for the Wrong Eyed Jesus Soundtrack

An inspiring docudrama of the South with Jim White as your Odysseus. Highly recommend checking it out.
Theresa Andersen
Lorraine's Song
Shine
Basin Street

She's got a new self-titled EP with a reworked version of "Fine Line." Also, she covers Madonna's "Borderline" and strips down the production quality to give you that "in your living room feel."
Rosetta Howard
Men are like street cars
Women Blues Singers

I guess this song doesn't really fit unless the streetcars are running in the city
Magic Sam
All Of Your Love
West Side Soul

Last time I checked SoundScan this album has yet to sell 2,000 records and it's so freaking good. Of all the George Mitchell recordings released by Fat Possum, this is my favorite and the album speaks for itself.
