*Tracklisting below is from Volume 3 of the Decktician Logs. Many thanks to Decktician, Ken Garner for copying and additional information, and Rocker for acting as central HQ.
*A "rootsy" playlist with plenty of blues, country, folk and pub-rock material (as well as the London-based black band Cymande), but no progressive rock -- unless you count Captain Beefheart.
*Two versions of the same song (sometimes called "Hearts Made Of Stone") open the show; a new recording by the Blue Ridge Rangers (an alias for John Fogerty, formerly of Creedence Clearwater Revival) followed by the 1955 US number one version by vocal trio the Fontane Sisters.
*The session by John Dummer’s Ooblee Dooblee Band includes a version of "Steel Guitar Rag", recorded by many artists but originally a hit for Bob Wills And His Texas Playboys in 1936.
