SSE25 RL Burnside
In this episode, we are diving deep into the raw, hypnotic, and unvarnished world of RL Burnside—the legendary master of North Mississippi Hill Country Blues. Far different from traditional delta blues, Burnside's signature style relies on driving rhythms, electric guitar grooves, and an unrelenting tempo that sounds just as revolutionary today as it did decades ago.We trace his incredible journey from a hard-working sharecropper to an international indie-blues icon, exploring how his raw, loop-like guitar styles reshaped modern blues and influenced genres from alternative rock to hip-hop.Watch the epidsodes on my YouTube channel at: https://www.youtube.com/@BobBowman962/videosCover Art by Alice Saurber: Alice Design Studio - 513-907-9878Cigar Box Guitar Music for Season 1 performed by Russ Wellington and Cody GogginCigar Box Guitar Music for Season 2 performed by Dean Dostal

SSE23 The Punch Box
In this episode I discuss my favorite cigar box to build with and why. I provide a history of the character and the cigar brand as well. In my opinion it is a box made for an acoustic build that you and everyone around the campfire can hear. Let me know your thoughts on the box itself, if you've built with it and your thoughts and especially let me know what you think of the short format.Watch the epidsodes on my YouTube channel at: https://www.youtube.com/@BobBowman962/videosCover Art by Alice Saurber: Alice Design Studio - 513-907-9878Cigar Box Guitar Music for Season 1 performed by Russ Wellington and Cody GogginCigar Box Guitar Music for Season 2 performed by Dean Dostal
