Today and Roots Music national music polls.
This is our annual Top Ten Show, where we play the Top Ten songs from Bluegrass Unlimited for 2017 and the Top Ten most requested songs on the PineCone Bluegrass show for 2017. The top ten for BU are determined using only songs that made it to the top ten. The top ten requests are determined from a count of the live request calls received during the live show throughout the year.
