Another fun Thursday morning blues show. No real direction or theme this morning, just a good variety (I hope) of blues music to help cure what ails your soul. I did manage to delve into some new stuff that sounded pretty good to me. I like to take new music home to revue before playing it on the air, but sometimes it just doesn’t work out that way. I quickly scanned the new Kenny Neal CD “Let Life Flow” and found a nice version of his fathers “Starlight Diamond” I think he did a great job of putting his style into the song while maintaining his dad’s original arrangement, very nice. I also played a cut from JW Jones new album “Bluelisted”. I took a look at who he had performing with him on the album (Little Charlie Baty, Junior Watson, Larry Taylor and Richard Innis) and I knew that I could probably play any song on this CD and it would be pretty good. How does this guy get all these great guys to play on all his albums? Put me in front of this group and I could almost make something worth listening to.
