Actually, WAMU, though it has already killed both its weekday bluegrass, and, especially to my annoyance, Saturday bluegrass, still has an excellent lineup most of Sunday. First comes gospel bluegrass 7 to 10 AM, then Ray Davis (bluegrass), 10 to 1 (who can always be counted on for a Civil War set, a train set, and even a "plumb pitiful" (as he calls it) set. Then Dick Spottswood 1 to 3 (already cut back an hour) with his "Obsolete Music Hour" as he calls it---the real roots of bluegrass, country, Irish etc (on record, at any rate). Then Eddie Stubbs 3 to 5---country music 40's to 60's.

That's as it stands now.

I agree a pre-emptive strike on WAMU management seems to be called for. In addition to notifying WAMU pointedly of my views on this new addition to their staff, I will alert CABOMA (Capital Area Bluegrass and Old Time Music Association)----if they don't already know.
