Country Gentlemen classics from 1957 are followed by three potent Mississippi blues women from 1930, and a Jimmie Rodgers suite dedicated to a listener who remembers being an usher in the theater aisle when JR's only Washington appearance occurred in 1928. Other Obsolete celebrities include Charlie Monroe, Molly O'Day, Lonnie Johnson, Cowboy Copas and Blind Willie Dunn's Gin Bottle Four.
