Times They Are a Changing – 40 Years on the Radio — 4 Comments

  1. Ron, you’re an icon in Folk Music circles and rightfully so. One small example of your vision is your significant role in the emergence of The Cumberland Trio from the shadows to the shining light of the Folk scene. We’re deeply indebted to you, my friend and four albums later tell you none of our success in this millennium would have been possible without the feature three hour special Traditions show you were kind enough to air in us and our music from the Folk Era and the present millennium. Congratulations on your long and successful tenure at WFDU!!

    Forever Young & Folk On!!

    Jerre Haskew

    • Thank you Jerre! I had great fun getting to know you and Andy and sharing the story of the Cumberland Trio, and of course I love your music! We all miss Andy!

  2. Ron, wonderful read and on the money. Too many people in radio do not see the opportunity to really be a part of the listening AND the music community. Only radio like yours can respond to what’s happening with music that is inspired by and directed to those events.
    Keep up the good fight. It may not seem like it, but we are affecting elections and the political culture of our country in a way that benefits everyone, not just the one percent.

    • Thank you James! Having the opportunity to play music from artists like you is my great reward, and I hope that others who listen will agree that the world is a better place when they hear such great music
