What's On: January 26

The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band has been performing since the 60s. Through the years they've played folk, country-rock and pop. They've had popular radio hits and well-known (though rarely broadcast) traditional tunes. We recorded them at the Cotillion in Wichita.

It's impossible to pick just one tune to be an example so here are three of their best known:
