Mandolin player Mike Compton is a self-described connoisseur of special days; he’s especially a fan of National Root Canal Appreciation Day and Lost Sock Memorial Day. Since his visit to Live In Studio C corresponded with Bad Day Day, he kicked off his set with some blues.

Set List:

Walter Vinson/Lonnie Chatman: Sittin’ On Top of The World

DeFord Bailey: Evening Prayer Blues

Mississippi Fiddle Tune: Avalon Blues

Bill Monroe: Ebenezer Scrooge

Bill Monroe: Frog on a Lilly Pad
