Playlist: The Moonshine Show - 14 December 2008

I started and ended today's show with some seasonal music, played some new music from David Parmley & Continental Divide and Robin & Linda Williams and included two sets of rather diverse old-time music in the show. (We dedicated Uncle Dave Macon's "Wreck of the Tennessee Gravy Train" to Rod Blagojevich.)
