I'm in the mood for roots music this week because two awesome albums were released on Friday: "Made In Brooklyn" by John McEuen and "Circlin' Back - Celebrating 50 Years" from the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.

In addition to four tunes that are reinterpreted on those albums, we've got The Carlisles, Hank Thompson, Bill Haley and his Comets, and other goodies:

* Too Old To Cut The Mustard - The Carlisles (1951)

* Rub-A-Dub-Dub - Hank Thompson (1953)

* On Top of Old Smoky - The Weavers (1951)

* Traveling Mood - Wee Willie Wayne (1955)

* Blue Ridge Cabin Home - Flatt & Scruggs (1957)

* Nine Pound Hammer - Merle Travis (1951)

* Can The Circle Be Unbroken - The Carter Family (1935)

* Li'l Liza Jane - Earl Fuller's Famous Jazz Band (1917)

* Thirteen Women - Bill Haley and his Comets (1954)
