It's Fall, and we're looking forward to the return of our favorite TV shows -- like the January 6th Hearings! We'll hear a bunch of tunes on that and related topics, a set of songs pondering living and dying, and some stray tracks that didn't fit into a couple of other recent episodes. Today's playlist encompasses folk, rock, country, psychedelia, R&B, blues, soul, jazz, hip-hop, and some classic live R.E.M., including brand-new music from Wilco, The Waterboys, Loudon Wainwright — and that’s just the W’s! — and a new, posthumous release from Dr. John with Aaron Neville, covering the Traveling Wilburys! Kicking off with a Bob Dylan song particularly appropriate for this week.
