Traveling Blues, show no. 66, October 10, 2012

On tonight's show, we celebrated the birthdays of John Lennon and Nappy Brown (Napoleon Culp).
I also "dug up" some historic recordings by the sadly under-recognized guitarist Hollywood Fats (Michael Mann).
We featured new recordings by Blues diva Shemekia Copeland, harmonica ace Sugar Blue, young Brit Blues lady Joanne Shaw Taylor,
and the deep voiced Hans Theessink with Terry Evans  (not Terry King as I may have said on air) and Ry Cooder.

here's our playlist:

01. Hollywood Fats (Michael Mann) - Hideaway
02. Liz Mandeville - Corner Bar Blues
03. The Beatles/John Lennon - Yer Blues
04. Nappy Brown - Keep On Pleasin' You
05. Nick Gravenites - Buried Alive In The Blues
06. Sugar Blue - One More Mile
07. Hans Theessink/Terry Evans - Blues Stay Away From Me
08. Hans Theessink/Terry Evans - Pouring Water On A Drowning Man
