"Come Along and Ride This Train"

 

Each episode features a musical history lesson in the people and the places and, of course, the music that made the man in Black the Man. This week, our train features stops that recount the lives and times of Flip Wilson and Pete Seeger. We also mourn the loss of life at California’s Los Gatos Canyon.
