In addition to the obligatory Mother’s Day set, today’s show featured a special guest – Guy Mendilow.  Guy and his band will be performing in the NYC area this week.   Guy shared some live recordings that he made in Boston with his band performing their unique brand of world music.

Utah Phillips will celebrate a birthday this week, and we started celebrating early with a set of his songs.
