Last week’s show paid tribute to the great country guitarists…so why not spend a couple of hours with the blues greats. We’ll cover a good number of the well knowns like Buddy Guy, Elmore James, and the three ‘kings’…B.B., Freddie, and Albert as well as the second tier innovators like Guitar Slim, J. B. Lenoir, Magic Sam, and Mighty Joe Young. It’s a big helping of blues, some soul-laden clips, and big, screaming rhythm…coming your way on KWTF every Friday night on Deeper Roots: A Century of America’s Music.
