MUSICAL MEMORIES WITH JOE ELY & ROSCOE ROBINSON
We reach for "mystic chords of memory" with singer-songwriter Joe Ely and gospel/soul man Roscoe Robinson to hear about the ground they've covered as veteran touring musicians. Joe starts us off in Lubbock, Texas, where he grew up, and tells of railroading across America, running off with the circus, musical explorations with the Flatlanders and his role in Austin's Cosmic Cowboy scene. Roscoe, now in his 91st orbit around the sun, remembers his childhood in Dermott, Arkansas, the family's migration north, traveling the gospel circuit through the Jim Crow South, taking the stage at the Apollo Theater and his life-long spiritual journey. Plus, we spin travel tunes from artists' influences like Buddy Holly, Flaco Jimenez and the Staple Singers.

ROCK 'N' ROUTES
The sound of rock continues to dominate the musical spirit of America. Loud and anthemic, many artists eventually come to and pass through rock n' roll from country, folk, R&B, even gospel. American Routes takes a look at three roots musicians who rock: Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna veteran Jorma Kaukonen talks about his recent acoustic work; Texas trio the Flatlanders (Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Butch Hancock and Joe Ely) strum a few tunes in the studio; and New Orleans' own Lloyd Price shows how his R&B roots helped give birth to rock n' roll.
