Threads and Tangents 3/28/23 - Baseball

This week's musical thread is a celebration of the start of the 2023 baseball season. The first baseball records were pressed in 1907 and everyone from Chuck Berry to Warren Zevon, from Doc Watson to Sam Bush, has made them since.

We'll hear music from: Dan Bern, Chuck Brodsky, Greg Brown, Peter Cooper, Dizzy Gillespie Sextet, Steve Goodman & Jethro Burns, Claire Hamill, Christine Lavin, John McCutcheon, Sam & Dave, Watermelon Slim, and Jimmy Yancey. Plus, a poem from Lawrence Ferlinghetti.
