Del McCoury on NPR

The Del McCoury band on NPRJohn posted the other day that Del McCoury and band would be making an appearance on NPR’s Talk of the Nation. In that post he mentioned that the show’s audio would be made available online.

The story is now online and does include a link for listening to the audio of the in studio performance. You can find it here.

The NPR: Blog of the Nation includes two follow up posts to the Studio 4a performance.

The first story focuses on a 10 year old mandolin player who called in to talk with Ronnie about the mandolin.

The second story, actually the first one posted, includes a video of Del’s in studio performance of 1952 Vincent Black Lightning. It’s wonderfully filmed footage and worth watching for all Del Heads.
