Rotation #120 - July 23, 2007

Howdy,

I saw a post on the Guitar Town mailing list about a petition to cal for the
induction of Gram Parsons into the Country Music Hall of Fame. This seems to
me an excellent idea. GP's long term influence on country and country-rock
is huge. Please take a minute to sign the
petition<http://www.thepetitionsite.com/petition/531164998>.


As always, the full rotation for the week is
online<http://www.taprootradio.com/2007/07/taproot-radio-news-120.html>.


Dig Deep,
Calvin

Listener Polls: In last week's poll, we asked what kind of musician is Gram
Parsons and vtes were equally split among rock, blues, and pop.
Interestingly enough, he didn't receive a single vote for being classified
as an "americana" artist.

In the spirit of promoting Gram Parsons bid to be inducted into the Country
Music Hall of Fame, this week's poll is to rate Parson's
bands<http://www.taprootradio.com/2007/07/rate-gram-parsons-bands.html>
