Another musical great has succumbed to time. Dolly Parton pasted away yesterday and has left a huge vacancy in what we know as Country music. With a career spanning some 60 plus years and many philanthropic achievements to her credit she will be sorely missed. In my opinion, she was to Country music what Joni Mitchell has been to Rock/Jaz/Blues music. Pioneers and trailblazers. Not just for the music genres, but for women that have chosen to follow in their footsteps. R.I.P. Sweet Lady.

A tip of the hat to the late Frank Beard. The drummer and the 2nd to fall from the band that we've all grown up to. Billy Gibbons has said that the upcoming concert that Beard was scheduled to be part of will go on to honor his fallen brother.

I've been a little busy recently adding some new music to the station. Not new by the release date, just new to the listeners. It's a rather wide swath of tunes, but a perfect collection given the rotation that I added them to. Which is what I call Coffee House tunes (5:00pm to 6:00am) and is meant to be far away from "pop-rock". Anyway, for you that are reading this, I hope that you find some new music that you want to hear on occasion on Canned Jams Radio.

Eva Cassidy
Born February 2, 1963
Died November 2, 1996, at the age of 33
Was an amazing artist who made the stage her home. Mick Fleetwood, who owned a bar down the street from where Eva normally played made attempts to get her into the mainstream music community. He got her into discussions with record labels. The labels being what they were, wanted her to put her music in one box. She told them that she could only play what moved her. If you look at the playlist that she left behind, you'll realize that she focused on beauty and not genre. Those that love music for music's sake understand that concept. Needless to say, no record label ever managed to sign her. Several years after her death, two of her songs appeared on BBC Radio. That event brought about three number one albums and one number one hit that sold 10 million copies.
