12:55 am	Lost Music Saloon: 5:00 - 7:00 p.m. (Eastern): European Music The Lost Music Saloon has dedicated past programs to music from Canada and Australia that fits the alt-country/roots/bluegrass/modern folk/twang styles favored here in the Saloon. Today we’ll take a long listen to music from European artists and bands, concentrating (mostly) on continental Europe. Some of this music sounds like it could have come straight out of American clubs or studios, but many of tonight’s songs bear unmistakable Eurasian accents, and a couple will even feature non-English lyrics. I’ll borrow liberally from the recent, and excellent, ’10 Years of European World of Bluegrass: America & Europe Join Hands’ a 2-CD compilation of 48 bands from 15 countries. See you in the Saloon!

Check out the playlist to see what I mean. See you in the Saloon!

10:20 am	Lost Music Saloon: 5-7 p.m. (Eastern): 4th Anniversary Show Today’s edition of the Lost Music Saloon celebrates its own 4th birthday. It was on June 18, 2004 that the Lost Music Saloon first aired here on WRIR. Back then it was a Friday evening show, but it moved to Mondays in December, 2004 when WRIR created its “Roots Music Monday” line-up of programs. In 2004 we were webcasting (no broadcasting over the airwaves back then) from a room about the size of a large closet in the basement of this building. When it rained, the floor puddled with water. The bathroom failed to work more often than not. There were times you could count the entire listening audience on one hand. It's amazing how far WRIR has progressed since then. We couldn't have done it without you, the listeners. As has become a Lost Music Saloon tradition, I re-create the playlist for my very first show on each anniversary. I trust that you won’t mind re-visiting these old friends once again. See you in the Saloon! Lost Music Saloon: PLAYLIST: June 16, 2008: 5-7 p.m.: 4th Anniv'y Show 01) Backsliders: Throwin Rocks at the Moon: Throwin Rocks at the Moon/Mammoth 02) Old 97’s (duet with Exene Cervenka): Four Leaf Clover: Too Far To Care/Elektra 03) Roger Clyne & the Peacemakers: Jack vs. Jose: Honky Tonk Union/ Emma Java 04) Scott Miller: Dear Sarah: Thus Always To Tyrants/Sugar Hill 05) Highwaymen: The Road Goes On Forever: Road Goes On Forever/ Liberty 06) Steve Earle: Billy and Bonnie: I Feel Alright/WB 07) Loretta Lynn (duet with Jack White): Portland, Oregon: Van Lear Rose/Interscope 08) Robbie Fulks (w/ Kelly Willis): Parallel Bars: Very Best Of Robbie Fulks/Bloodshot 09) Beaver Nelson: Landed In the Mud: The Last Hurrah/Freedom 10) Joe Ely: Gallo Del Cielo: Letter to Laredo/MCA 11) Son Volt: Tear-Stained Eye: Trace/WB 12) Wilco: Box Full of Letters: A.M./Sire 13) Whiskeytown: Houses On the Hill: Strangers Almanac/Outpost 14) Ray Charles: 3/4 Time: Complete C&W Recordings/Rhino 15) Ray Charles (w/Hank Williams, Jr.): Two Old Cats Like Us: Complete C&W Recordings/Rhino 16) Ted Hawkins: There Stands the Glass: Next Hundred Years/Geffen 17) Cornershop: Good to be on the Road Back Home: When I Was Born For the 7th Time/Luaka Bop 18) Jimmie Dale Gilmore: Just a Wave: Spinning Around the Sun/Elektra 19) Colin Gilmore: Good Times Stay: The Day The World Stopped/ Squirm 20) Billy Joe Shaver: Blood Is Thicker Than Water: Earth Rolls On/New West 21) Continental Drifters: Matty Groves: Listen, Listen/Blue Rose 22) Terry Allen: After the Fall: Human Remains/Sugar Hill 23) Terry Allen: Ain't No Top 40 Song: Salivation/Sugar Hill 24) Yayhoos: What Are We Waiting For: Fear Not the Obvious/Bloodshot 25) Marlee MacLeod: Mata Hari Dress: Vertigo/TRG 26) Lyle Lovett: Give Back My Heart: Pontiac/MCA 27) Mark Germino: Rex Bob Lowenstein: Radartown/BMG Garry Morse WRIR Richmond Indie Radio PO Box 4787 Richmond, VA 23220 Listen and support WRIR: http://www.wrir.org Lost Music Saloon Playlists: http://www.livejournal.com/users/lostmusicsaloon/ (Comment on this)

1:42 pm	Lost Music Saloon: 5-7:00 p.m. (Eastern): Goodbye No Depression Music Magazine! This week’s Lost Music Saloon waves a musical good-bye to that bible of alternative country music (whatever that was), the ‘No Depression’ music magazine. Full Disclosure: I was an occasional contributing writer to the No Dep mag a few years back, and it is the one and only mag (of any kind, music or otherwise) that I’ve ever bothered to collect every single issue - - 75 in all. No Dep’s last issue (May-June, with Buddy Miller on the cover) is on newsstands now...after that, it’s finished as a bi-monthly magazine. You can still find online at www.nodepression.net, and there are plans to publish a twice-yearly No Depression book. So please join me as I look back, affectionately, over No Dep’s journalistic journey on today’s show. I’ll play cuts from bands that made the cover of the first 10 issues; a couple of songs each from No Dep’s Artists of the Decade for the 90’s and the 00’s; some music by bands or from albums I reviewed for the magazine; and even a couple of real rarities: songs by and from Peter Blackstock, one of the mag’s founders, publishers, and managing editors. Lost Music Saloon: PLAYLIST: May 5, 2008: Goodbye No Depression Music Magazine! The Carter Family: No Depression in Heaven First Ten Covers of No Depression Magazine: 01) Son Volt: Windfall 02) Blue Mountain: Blue Canoe 03) Steve Earle: Sometimes She Forgets 04) Hank Williams: Fly Trouble (Honey Wilds co-wrote) 05) Wilco: Box Full of Letters 06) Jason & the Scorchers: Absolutely Sweet Marie 07) Waco Brothers: Death of Country Music 08) Bad Livers: He Didn't Say a Word 09) Old 97's: Barrier Reef - - Bottle Rockets: Kit Kat Clock 11) Whiskeytown: 16 Days New Lost City Ramblers: No Depression in Heaven Ronny Elliott: South By So What My Reviews in No Dep: Cowboy Junkies: Blue Guitar Guy Davis: Sweetheart Like You Ranchero Brothers: West Texas Teardrops Jimmie Driftwood: The Battle of New Orleans Whiskeytown: Excuse Me While I Break My Own Heart Tonight Uncle Tupelo: No Depression Peter Blackstock Set (Founder/Publisher/Managing Editor of No Dep Mag) - Peter Blackstock: Her ND World - Mary Lou Lord: His ND World - Peter Blackstock I Remember Artists of the Decade Set: The 90's: Alejandro Escovedo - As I Fall - Wave The 00's: Buddy Miller: - Don't Wait - Watching Amy Dance Most No Dep Covers: Lucinda Williams Set - Can't Let Go - Passionate Kisses - Car Wheels on a Gravel Road Dead Ringer Band: No Depression Garry Morse WRIR Richmond Indie Radio PO Box 4787 Richmond, VA 23220 Listen and support WRIR: http://www.wrir.org Lost Music Saloon Playlists: http://www.livejournal.com/users/lostmusicsaloon/ (Comment on this)

2:04 pm	Lost Music Saloon: PLAYLIST: April 14, 2008 5-7 p.m. (Eastern) I haven't done a "new music edition" of the Lost Music Saloon for two months, so today's the day. Most of the songs you'll hear on tonight's show come from albums released in 2008. But I'll play a short set of songs that take note of the fact that today, April 14, is also known as "Ruination Day" because of three tragedies that all fell on this date in history: (1) the assassination of Abraham Lincoln in 1865; (2) the sinking of the Titanic in 1912; and (3) "Black Sunday" in 1935, the worst day of Dust Bowl storms to afflict the nation, when "black blizzards" afflicted the country with clouds of dust so thick visibility was reduced to 5 feet in many places. See you in the Saloon! Lost Music Saloon: PLAYLIST: April 14, 2008: [final playlist be posted as the show progresses taken from the songs below]: Jason Mraz: I'm Yours: We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things/Atlantic Scott Paul: New World Order: Paradise/self Willie Nelson: When I've Sung My Last Hillbilly Song (1954): One Hell of a Ride Box/Col-Legacy Willie Nelson: When I've Sung My Last Hillbilly Song (2008): One Hell of a Ride Box/Col-Legacy Hayes Carll: Drunken Poet's Dream: Trouble in Mind/Lost Highway Tim Miller: Let's Go: Adelaide/Massive Randy Thompson: Rocksalt & Nails: Further On/Jackpot The Bobs: Cow Tipping, Pt. 2: Get Your Monkey Off My Dog/self Arty Hill & the Long Lost Daddys: I Might Have Been a Lawyer (But I Couldn't Pass the Bar): Bar of Gold/Cow Island Mars Arizona: Dirty Town: Hello Cruel World Mae Robertson: Meet the Sun Halfway: Meet the Sun Halfway Angeline: The Clearing: Powdered Pearls Buzz Cason: Get Out of Town: Hats Off To Hank Dropkick: Good Vibes: Dot the I/Taylored Corb Lund Band: Horse Soldier!

8:55 am	LOST MUSIC SALOON: Mondays 5-7pm (Eastern): Easter Edition Today's Lost Music Saloon is an Easter edition. Not gospel, and not “Christian Rock”, but songs that come at the idea of God, Man, and religion from varying angles. Lyle Lovett goes to “Church” and Paul Thorn takes us to the “Mission Temple Fireworks Stand”, but Iris DeMent just wants to "Let the Mystery Be". Bill Morrissey sends us a "Letter From Heaven" while Robbie Fulks declares that "God Isn't Real". Van Morrison finds God in nature ("In the Garden") while Jeff Buckley finds God in the power of music and the glory of women ("Hallelujah"). Kate Campbell offers up her re-imagining of the Last Supper ("Last Song"), while other songs take the perspective of Judas ("Too Much Heaven On Their Minds") and the priests who made the decision to put Jesus to death ("This Jesus Must Die"). We'll hear about Jesus as a peaceful hippie ("Jesus Was a Capricorn") and as a not-so-peaceful hitchhiker (“Gimme a Ride to Heaven, Boy”). From soup kitchens to traveling salvation shows to speaking in tongues, you'll hear it all in the Saloon today. Songs to be selected from: Buddy Miller: With God On Our Side/New West Terry Allen: Gimme a Ride To Heaven Boy/Sugar Hill Van Morrison: In the Garden/Polydor Paul Thorn: Mission Temple Fireworks Stand/Perpetual Obscurity Kate Campbell: The Last Song/Eminent Lone Justice: Soap, Soup & Salvation/Geffen Greg Brown: Speaking In Tongues/Red House Pogues: If I Should Fall From Grace With God/Stiff Jeff Buckley: Hallelujah/Columbia Lyle Lovett: Church/Curb Iris DeMent: Let the Mystery Be/WB Bill Morrissey: Sandy/Philo Johnny Cash: Sunday Morning Coming Down/Columbia Legacy Ian Moore: Muddy Jesus/Capricorn Flaming Lips: Plastic Jesus/WB Ray Wylie Hubbard: This Morning I Am Born Again/Philo Randy Newman: God’s Song (That’s Why I Love Mankind)/Reprise Terry Allen: Salivation/Sugar Hill Emmylou Harris: Orphan Girl/Elektra Bob Dylan: Every Grain of Sand/Columbia Bill Morrissey: Letter From Heaven/Philo Andrew Lloyd Webber/Tim Rice: Heaven On Their Minds/MCA Robbie Fulks: God Isn’t Real/Geffen Maria McKee: You Gotta Sin To Get Saved/Geffen Amazing Rhythm Aces: Amazing Grace (Used To Be Her Favorite Song)/CCMusic Andrew Lloyd Webber/Tim Rice: This Jesus Must Die/MCA Wilco w/Billy Bragg: Christ For President/Elektra Tom Russell w/Little Jack Horton: Swap Meet Jesus/Hightone Mover: Jesus Was a Capricorn/Jackpine Social Club Iris DeMent: He Reached Down/Flariella Robbie Fulks: What The Lord Hath Wrought(Any Fool Can Tear Down)/Bloodshot Rodney Crowell: Beautiful Despair/Columbia Neil Diamond: Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show/MCA Garry Morse WRIR Richmond Indie Radio PO Box 4787 Richmond, VA 23220 Listen and support WRIR: http://www.wrir.org Lost Music Saloon Playlists: http://www.livejournal.com/users/lostmusicsaloon/ (Comment on this)
