RadioCPRStarted with some Lead Belly, tying in with the big concert saluting his work Saturday at the Kennedy Center. Then came what might be the D.C. radio premiere of Mingering Mike, the legendary local folk artist who created his own line of album sleeves, currently on exhibit at Smithsonian’s American Art Museum, followed by a line of soul.

Then came a stab at vinyl, especially with finds from last weekend’s Record Store Day, though it was only half successful (only one channel seemed to work). Closed out with a bunch of They Might Be Giants who played in town tonight, and a couple from the Replacements.

It all capped an exciting week at the station, when dozens of new DJs started new shows (and explained the odd starting time this week). Here’s what I played on the radio tonight:
