You'll hear unusual performers, uncommon instrumentation and great fiddlers from California to Ohio, New Mexico to West Virginia. Forget "Americana", this collection shows Anglo-American down-home music as it actually was, and in many cases, still is. Listen for selections from London-based singer-songwriter Tom Odell’s new album <em>Long Way Down.</em> Odell will be one of several acts performing with the Rolling Stones this summer at Hyde Park.</p><p> Mon, 13 May 2013 13:00:00 +0000 Jedd Beaudoin 16395 at http://kmuw.org Top Albums: April 22- 27 http://kmuw.org/post/top-albums-april-22-27 <ol><li><em>Shaking The Habitual</em>-- The Knife</li><li><em>The Stark Reality Discovers Hoagy Carmichael’s Music Shop</em>-- The Stark Reality</li><li><em>Primary Perceptions</em>-- Nick Jaina</li><li><em>“Times Like This" </em>(single)-- Steve Earle</li><li><em>Songs For Slim</em>-- The Replacements</li><li><em>Hard Attack/Dust</em>-- Dust</li><li><em>Stories Don’t End</em>-- Dawes</li><li><em>Mosquito</em>-- Yeah Yeah Yeahs</li><li><em>Wing Beat Elastic</em>-- Mike Keneally</li><li><em>Klavierstucke</em>-- Chris Opperman</li></ol> Mon, 29 Apr 2013 13:20:42 +0000 Jedd Beaudoin 16394 at http://kmuw.org Top Albums: April 15-20 http://kmuw.org/post/top-albums-april-15-20 <ol><li><em>Wing Beat Elastic </em>--Mike Keneally</li><li><em>This River </em>--JJ Grey &amp;
