Buried Alive in the Blues
Big Dave
Polluter subbing for Big Dave today. I'll be focusing on the legacy of some of the Chess Masters including Willie, Muddy, Howlin', Chuck and Bo featuring their inspirations and mentors, their songs, and some 60's and 70's bands that were inspired by them. There will be tunes from Killing Floor, Manfred Mann and Frankie Miller to name a few. Dig ! Of course, it will be too many tunes with too little time.
Genre
Blues & Folk & Funk & Jazz & Swing & Zydeco
