Today's program highlighted the forthcoming Tom Russell epic, The Rose of Roscrae, a two CD "folk opera" of the old west. We'll be speaking with Tom about this latest project of his next week. Also new to our playlist, releases from The Burns Sisters, Dayna Kurtz, Jory Nash and Chuck Brodsky. With St. Patrick's Day ahead of us this week, our music mix had a distinct Celtic tint today.
