NPR

Published December 22, 2002 at 12:00 AM EST

A Weekend Edition series continues: What are the best albums that have never made it to CD? Hear from Village Voice and Jazz Times writer Lara Pellegrinelli (left), musician and co-owner of Amoeba Records Joe Goldmark, and Bill Monroe, author of the book Country Music, U.S.A. Pellegrinelli picks Embers and Ashes by Shirley Horn; Goldmark likes Clover, by the group of the same name. Monroe's choice is The Blue Sky Boys. Hear samples of "I Thought About You," "Santa Fe" and "Asleep in the Briny Deep."

Federal funding is gone.

Congress has eliminated all funding for public media.

That means $2.1 million per year that Connecticut Public relied on to deliver you news, information, and entertainment programs you enjoyed is gone.

The future of public media is in your hands.

All donations are appreciated, but we ask in this moment you consider starting a monthly gift as a Sustainer to help replace what’s been lost.
