Blues is the Truth 765
from Blues is the Truth Hosted by Ian McHugh
Blues is the Truth is back with edition 765 and it is overflowing with great music and pure blues spirit. This week’s playlist takes you from gritty roadhouse grooves to soul-soaked vocals and hard-hitting guitar licks. We open with the powerhouse playing of Popa Chubby and keep the energy high with Sister Suzie and Papa George. Jimmie Vaughan and Koko Taylor bring the Texas and Chicago flavours, while Bad Temper Joe and Buddy Guy deliver the kind of deep emotional playing only the blues can give. The Rolling Stones show their love for the genre, Garry Burnside and Kent Burnside keep the Mississippi juke joint spirit alive, and Bobby Blue Bland shows why he is one of the great soul-blues voices. Shannon Curfmann and The Cinelli Brothers bring fresh fire, while The Bobettes and Mike Henderson add their own unique twists. Smokin’ Joe Kubeck and Bnois King, Albert Collins, and Bob Margolin keep the guitar greatness flowing. We also feature John Christopher Morgan, Long John Baldry, The Untouchables, Yates McKendree, The Altered Five Blues Band, Quintus McCormick Blues Band, and Larry McCray to round out a packed set. As always we are proudly supported by the Tuesday Night Blues Jam at the Rising Sun in Isleworth. There is no better place to experience the blues up close and personal.
