ProgramSaturday Morning: The Dusty Drifters
Hosted ByStephen Neale
Date7:00 AM on Feb. 26th, 2011
Reggae music from the 70s to begin the program, with tracks from Jacob Miller, Peter Tosh and John Holt. Listen too for a set of smouldering soul ballads and some gospel music from The Consolers and their great song 'Waiting for my Child to Come Home.' All this before 9 AM, when the Dusty Drifters arrive for their monthly half hour performance. Today it is songs about trains. Right after the Drifters, it is time for the classic country song of the month: Sunday Morning Coming Down from, the birthday boy, Johnny Cash (February 26, 1932).
