Ninety Minutes of Entertaining Folk Music

Today’s show features music about the Pacific Coast states, Alaska to California.  Older music starts the program (I can't help myself), followed by stories of moonshiners and coal miners, hard times and Palestine (from Guy Davis).  And by then it’s almost time for Halloween:  Trick or Treat!

There’s folk music Monday-Friday mornings 5:30-7:00, and Fridays after the noon news. 

Thanks for supporting KBOO community radio.
