Playlist for January 1, 2002

Since our annual “T&T Top 45 of …” special is not slated for several weeks, we decided to play back some of the more interesting records of the previous year (in no particular order). This gave the listeners one last chance to compile their own personal “Best of…” lists and send them off to be entered into our contest. Also, we took some time to highlight some of the people who passed away in 2001:  John Hartford, Chet Atkins and Boozoo Chavis.  Each of these legends made substantial contributions to roots music and their lasting influence will be felt for generations to come.
