Playlist for ThursdayApril 8th 2010

It seems I'm always playing an albums title track during the course of a usual Thusday morning blues show. So I thought "wouldn't it be kind of cool and maybe a little unique to play an entire show featuring nothing but title tracks"? As it turns out, it's not that imaginative since roughly a third of our blues library is CDs that feature a song on the album that is also the title of the album as well. So truthfully I could do numerous shows that feature title tracks and cover a lot of ground. A nice thing about doing a show this way is that it led me to play songs that I might not play otherwise. Overall I'd say it was a great experience and it turned out to be a pretty good show (if I do say so myself) and a lot of fun.
