We are back this week with another two hours of blues, proudly presented alongside our friends at the Crawdaddy Club Richmond. We have got tracks from the fantastic artists performing at their upcoming live dates. The regular features, The Song Remains the Same and The Title Track Tango, are all present and correct, and Ian McHugh is behind the mic, just as you'd expect! The playlist this week is an absolute triumph. We are setting off with the living legend Buddy Guy, followed by West London's own The Guv'nors, the deep vocals of Oscar Wilson, and Mississippi MacDonald and the Cottonmouth Kings. We are keeping the energy right where it needs to be with Smokin' Joe Kubek's take on Cross Cut Saw, The Johnny Max Band, the funk soul of Trombone Shorty, and the incredible harmonica work of Giles Robson. The standard stays high as we bring you the brilliant young musician Connor Selby, the Master of the Telecaster Albert Collins, Mighty Mike Schermer, and the blistering slide guitar of Joanna Connor. We also have firm show favourites The Mustangs, slide master Roy Rogers, the soulful Al Corte, and the beautiful, expressive fretwork of Ronnie Earl and the Broadcasters. Rounding off the show we clear the way for Roomful of Blues, the classic jump-blues energy of The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Big Steam, and the Backtrack Blues Band. To close out in absolute style, you will hear the formidable Joe Louis Walker, Colin James, the fantastic pairing of John January and Linda Barry, the deep blues of Big Daddy Wilson, and the undisputed master Otis Grand.
To celebrate Buddy Guy's recent 90th birthday, hosts Jim DeRogatis and Greg Kot re-air their 2007 with the blues legend. They'll also give an update on what he's been up to and share some of their favorite Buddy Guy tracks.Join our Facebook Group: https://bit.ly/3sivr9TBecome a member on Patreon: https://bit.ly/3slWZvcSign up for our newsletter: https://bit.ly/4frcVZoMake a donation via PayPal: https://bit.ly/3dmt9lUSend us a Voice Memo: Desktop: bit.ly/2RyD5Ah Mobile: sayhi.chat/soundops Featured Songs:Buddy Guy, "First Time I Met the Blues," First Time I Met the Blues (Single), Chess, 1960The Beatles, "With a Little Help from My Friends," Sgt.

Interview iwth Johnny Iguana of The Claudettes Johnny Iguana, the Claudettes' composer/pianist (who has played on albums featuring Derek Trucks, Johnny Winter, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Buddy Guy, Junior Wells, James Cotton and Johnny's own Chicago punk-organ cult band Oh My God), has been reaching a worldwide audience as co-composer of the original score of Emmy-winning smash FX/Hulu series "The Bear." His co-creator of that score, JQ, joined Johnny to co-produce two tracks on GARAGE GLAMOUR. In addition, Grammy-winning producer and musical Renaissance man Steve Berkowitz (who also happens to be Johnny Iguana's uncle) flew from NY to Chicago to co-produce much of GARAGE GLAMOUR. But the big coming-out party here belongs to lead singer Rachel Williams, who has been dropping jaws at Claudettes shows since early 2023 and now makes her album debut with the band. Riveting concert crowds with her six-foot height, powerfully soulful vocals and dazzling array of stunning outfits, Rachel simply amazes on GARAGE GLAMOUR. She joins Grammy-nominated guest singer/guitarist John Primer on the deeply moving album opener "(You Are My) Whole World." Their duet is a thing of profound beauty, as John fell in love with this song in the studio, just as the tape was rolling. This is one of those precious occasions where the moment of musical and emotional discovery is documented just as it flowered. To listen to (now-80-year-old) Primer, distinguished alumnus of the Muddy Waters Band, pour his whole heart into this duet with Rachel is something supremely special. "'(You Are My) Whole World' is a Chicago song, through and through," says Iguana. "The Chi-Lites' 'Oh Girl' was a musical inspiration, and John Primer is not only one of the last great Chicago blues legends alive, but he loves soul songs so much. He has sung soul classics on stage and in the studio for years, and so I knew that he would bring something extraordinary to this song. My wife and our drummer's wife both cried when they first heard the track with John's vocal on it. I knew we had something remarkable here." The band, with Michael Caskey on drums and Zach Verdoorn on bass and guitar, create rock-steady grooves on the galloping "Winter Came While You Were Gone" and the throwback reverb-soaked rock 'n' roll of "Whirlpool," the band's spin on a classic Wanda Jackson B-side. Lustful wishes go in two different directions on "No Matter How Much" and "Touch You Back." In the former, an ominous buildup of stomps and lurches that gives way to a heroic prog-rock hoedown, Rachel blames all her problems on some maddeningly ineffective magic potion…100-proof Kentucky magic potion. In the latter, a tight dance-floor post-punker (featuring musical shoutouts to everyone from Kraftwerk and Gary Numan to CCR, the Doors and the Zombies), clear romantic signals are somehow missed, but Rachel won't give up so easily. Funk perfection is brought to "Touch You Back" in the form of guest guitar by the one and only Ella Feingold (Erykah Badu, Queen Latifah, Silk Sonic…), and both "No Matter How Much" and "Touch You Back" were co-produced with Iguana's "The Bear" partner JQ. Musical menace and a wide array of keyboards (from Hammond organ and acoustic piano to Roland JX-3P analog synth and Mellotron flutes) emerge on the maniacal rock-opera treatment of the real-life war of wills between Jeff Bezos and David Pecker on "Mr. Pecker's Apoplexy" and the heist-gone-wrong chiller "That Could Be Arranged." Another cinematic gem is the David Lynch-worthy "The Aftermath," in which the questioning narrator seems to ask from beyond the grave, "Are they still looking for me?" Finally, GARAGE GLAMOUR ends with the burning message of "Don't Give It Up to the Thieves," in which Rachel bursts out of the gate to urge us to stop feeling forever aggrieved, reverse the trend of finding enemies everywhere and reclaim the innocence and naivety of childhood. The second half of that album-closing suite, "There Is No Other Side," doubles down on the mission to reject this age of enmity, with the final line, "Heaven, hell and war are built on lies. There is no other side." Radically ranging from powerhouse singer to protean character actor, Rachel Williams asserts herself majestically here ("majestic" being the way one audience member described Rachel's entrance to the stage at an outdoor summer concert). And for all the sounds, styles, omens and homages heard on this astonishing new album, GARAGE GLAMOUR presents a band with a unified sound and an ultimately uplifting outlook. "These are wild times, in the worst way," says Iguana. "So let's get wild, in the best way. Have fun. Make fun. Make music. Be your weird self, all the way. We'll show you how." https://theclaudettes.com https://www.facebook.com/TheClaudettes/ https://www.youtube.com/c/TheClaudettesOfficial https://www.instagram.com/the_claudettes/?hl=en https://theclaudettes.bandcamp.com/

On this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with multi-instrumentalist, singer, songwriter, and producer Eliot Lewis for a conversation about rhythm, versatility, technology, and the experiences that shaped his remarkable career.Eliot began as a drummer and still considers rhythm the foundation of everything he does. We talk about how that early connection to the drums influenced his work as a guitarist, bassist, keyboardist, singer, and songwriter, as well as the unspoken communication that develops when musicians spend years learning how to play together.We also explore Eliot's years with Average White Band, where he grew as a performer and lead vocalist while sharing stages with artists including Earth, Wind & Fire, B.B. King, Buddy Guy, War, and the Ohio Players. Eliot discusses his work with producer and songwriter Dan Hartman, playing on Tina Turner's “The Best,” and learning the value of becoming a musical chameleon who can understand and support many different artists.A large part of our conversation focuses on Eliot's time with Hall & Oates and Live from Daryl's House. He explains how the musicians learned and recorded new material with very little rehearsal, why Daryl Hall wanted the performances to remain spontaneous, and what Eliot learned from working with guests such as Robert Fripp, CeeLo Green, Booker T. Jones, Grace Potter, and KT Tunstall.Eliot also takes us inside his current solo live-looping show. He describes the technical and musical challenge of creating the sound and dynamics of a full band by himself, the importance of remaining in the moment, and why technology should always serve the song rather than replace the musicianship underneath it.Key TakeawaysEliot still considers himself a drummer first, and rhythm remains the foundation of his work on every instrument.His live-looping show is designed to create the feeling and dynamics of a three- or four-piece band rather than simply repeat accompaniment.Learning several instruments helped Eliot understand how each musical role fits into an arrangement without competing for space.His years with Average White Band developed his confidence as a singer, songwriter, performer, and collaborative band member.Working on Live from Daryl's House required strong ears, quick preparation, trust between musicians, and an ability to respond in the moment.Eliot believes technology is most effective when it supports the song, but a performer must still be able to play and communicate when the technology fails.Running a solo career means balancing music with booking, travel, marketing, arranging, production, and the many other responsibilities that happen away from the stage.Music from the EpisodeRetroactive - Eliot LewisJetstream - Eliot LewisSonic Soldier - Eliot LewisHelpless - Eliot LewisAbout the PodcastThe Bandwich Tapes is a music interview podcast hosted by Brad Williams.

Hi, and welcome to another episode of The Talk Music Podcast!I'm thrilled to welcome JUNO Award–winning Canadian blues guitarist STEVE STRONGMAN as my guest. We recorded this most entertaining chat on my back porch on a beautiful afternoon, so listen closely and you'll hear some birds chirping in the background.Steve is one of Canada's top blues artists/guitarists, and his recording journey actually began back in 2004 with the album Honey, which I released successfully on my indie label via A&M Records. Reminiscing about that time working together made this conversation extra special and fun for me. Since then, Steve has built an incredible discography, including his 2013 JUNO-winning album A Natural Fact. His records highlight talented artists such as Harrison Kennedy, Jessie O'Brien, Crystal Shawanda, Rob Szabo, Dave King, Steve Marriner and many others. He's also an acclaimed producer, having co-written and co-produced Struck Down by Kim Wilson and The Fabulous Thunderbirds—a GRAMMY-nominated project featuring Bonnie Raitt, Keb' Mo', Taj Mahal, and Mick Fleetwood (and we go deep into how this record came together over a 2 year period).Steve has shared the stage with legends like B.B. King, Buddy Guy, Johnny Winter, and Jeff Healey, and in this chat we delve into his musical journey up to now, the story behind his favourite guitar, and as a bonus I also feature Steve with a live solo acoustic porch performance of "Struck Down (by the Blues)." Enjoy! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Een wat andere invulling van TORcast: een uurtje muziek die het best is samen te vatten als “Americana” (mijn andere muzikale liefde, naast jazz en klassiek). Americana: de moderne erfgenaam van de Amerikaanse rootsmuziek, waarin de verhalende kracht van folk, de emotie van blues, de traditie van country en af en toe de muzikale kleuren van jazz samenkomen. Playlist: Keb’Mo’: One Day Away; Keb’Mo’, Soweto Gospel Choir: Hand It Over; Kenny Wayne Shepherd: Deja Voodoo; Joe Bonamassa, Chaka Khan, Eric Clapton: The Thrill Is Gone; Eric Bibb: This One Don’t; Buddy Guy, Tracy Chapman): Ain’t No Sunshine; John Scofield, John Mayer: I Don’t Need No Doctor; Elles Bailey: Best Believe; Philip Kroonenberg: Song For John Lagrand; Ad Vanderveen: If Words Were Notes; Hans Theessink: St. James Infirmary. Americana is geen strikt afgebakend muziekgenre, maar eerder een verzamelnaam voor verschillende vormen van Amerikaanse rootsmuziek. De stijl bouwt voort op tradities uit folk, blues, country en gospel, en neemt soms ook elementen uit jazz over. Wat deze muzieksoorten verbindt, is hun nadruk op authenticiteit, verhalen en emotionele expressie. Van de blues erft Americana de oprechte gevoelsuitdrukking en thema's als liefde, verlies, hoop en het gewone leven. De muziek klinkt vaak warm, doorleefd en menselijk. Uit de folk komen vooral de verhalende liedteksten en het gebruik van akoestische instrumenten zoals gitaar, banjo, mandoline en viool. Hierdoor staat niet zozeer technische perfectie centraal, maar het vertellen van een verhaal. De relatie met jazz is minder direct, maar zeker aanwezig. Sommige Americana-artiesten verwerken jazzinvloeden in hun harmonieën, ritmiek of muzikale vrijheid. Daardoor krijgt de muziek soms meer kleur en diepgang zonder haar rootskarakter te verliezen. Americana kan daarom worden gezien als een muzikale brug tussen de emotionele kracht van blues, de vertelkunst van folk en de muzikale verfijning van jazz. Het resultaat is een toegankelijke, authentieke stijl die sterk geworteld is in de Amerikaanse muziektraditie, maar tegelijk ruimte biedt voor persoonlijke interpretatie en moderne invloeden.
Blockbuster Blake Stubbs joins Bob Sirott to talk about Buddy Guy, a health update from Carly Simon, and Johnny Depp’s appearance at San Diego Comic Con. He also shares his review of “Motor City,” another successful weekend of “The Odyssey,” and what Bob thought about the movie “Obsession.”
Charles is joined by longtime friend and concert enthusiast Andy to recap their 24/7 Live Music Challenge — an ambitious attempt to see 24 live music events in just seven days, inspired by "Concert Joe" Sarkis of New York, who famously attended 1,000 shows in a single year back in 1992. Based in the Chicago area, Charles and Andy plotted their week using ChatGPT to build efficient nightly itineraries, hitting 24 shows across 16 different clubs without ever buying tickets in advance. They quickly learned that averaging three and a half shows per night was brutal — three shows in one night put them behind schedule, while four was a struggle to pull off even once, let alone repeatedly. The conversation walks through each night in detail, from a jazz set at the historic Green Mill and a punk show at Subterranean to blues legends at Buddy Guy's Legends and Blue Chicago, a folk night at The Hideout, and a storytelling-meets-live-band show at Martyrs that reminded them both of NPR. Along the way they battled real tornado warnings that knocked out power at multiple venues, forcing last-minute audibles, and stumbled into unexpected magic — snagging the last two seats at nearly every stop, watching Buddy Guy hang out in his own club ahead of his 90th birthday, and catching an incredible impromptu bass solo from a musician neither of them had heard of before. By the end of the week, Charles and Andy had hit their goal of 24 shows for a total of just $313 in cover charges (well under the $1,000 budget Andy had braced his wife for), capped off by seeing Santana and the Doobie Brothers at a Tinley Park band shell. Standout moments included the high-energy punk band Squint and Kansas City act Season to Risk at The Liar's Club, while the sheer physical toll — late trains, torrential rain, and blown-out eardrums — made clear why neither of them plans to repeat the full challenge. Still, both agreed it was a rewarding way to break out of their musical comfort zones, discover new venues worth revisiting, and appreciate just how much dedication (and money) serious "concert chasers" like Concert Joe put into their passion. BANDS: Able Baker, Amyl and the Sniffers, Cherry Decay, Dog Caller, Dot, Grateful Dub, Greasy Gravy, Groove Witness, Jerry's Middle Finger, Public Opinion, Santana, Season to Risk, Squint, Tunnel, liverwhip, the Doobie Brothers, La Croix Mystique, Majesty. VENUES: Andy's Jazz Club, Beat Kitchen, Blue Chicago, Buddy Guy's Legends, Cobra Lounge, Fitzgeralds, Garcia's, Jazz Showcase, Martyrs, Salt Shed, Shubas, Subterranean, The Empty Bottle, The Green Mill, The Hideout, The Hungry Brain, The Liar's Club, Tinley Park (band shell).

Vanguard Records is best known for its eclectic catalog of pivotal jazz, folk, rock and blues recordings by iconic artists like Joan Baez, Linda Ronstadt, Buddy Guy, Charlie Musselwhite, John Fahey, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Doc Watson, Country Joe and the Fish and countless others. Most recently, Vanguard has carried forward the label's legacy of artistic excellence with a diverse roster including Barenaked Ladies, Indigo Girls, O.A.R. and Collective Soul.Riding the tail end of the popular boom of commercialized Folk Music, Vanguard's unexpected mega-hit "Walk Right In" soared to the top of the pop chart. Looking for a long forgotten treasure to mine, Erik Darling and Bill Svanoe, doing what many had done before them, updated an old string band tune, composed by Gus Cannon and recorded with his Jug Stompers in 1929. They arranged it for TWO 12-String guitars (one of which, a leftie model, had to be specially constructed for Bill), and adding the mellifluous tones of Lynne Taylor to complete the trio, the magic concoction was brewed to MOR perfection.And, just in time for Gus Cannon, too! He had recently pawned his banjo to pay his heating bill, and the royalties and national recognition breathed new life into a long dormant career.

"Garage Glamour" It's hard to think of a more dynamic and exciting band as the Claudettes. The Chicago-based rock/blues/pop outfit have been at it since 2010 and with six albums under their belts, including their riveting new one Garage Glamour, The Claudettes have established themselves as one of the most singular outfits on the planet. From Dance Scandal In The Gymnasium to High Times In The Dark, The Claudettes' music is informed as much by Junior Wells as it is The Minutemen. Are they a piano punk band? Sure. Are they a punk piano blues band? Yes. They're all of that. The band's new album Garage Glamour, which features the soulful Rachel Williams, is exhilarating, and life-affirming. It's a sweaty sonic reminder that when the world is falling apart, like it is now, it's music that keeps alive. As for Mr. Iguana, that's the nom de plume of one Brian Berkowitz, the New Jersey-born, Chicago-based braintrust of The Claudettes. Iguana has played with Junior Wells, Koko Taylor, Eddie Shaw, Carey Bell and Oh My God, which is the band where our paths first crossed. You'll hear about that in the chat, but a few more things to know about Johnny Iguana: he's a brilliant piano player who plays with the perfect blend of muscle and finesse. He played on the Grammy-nominated album Junior Wells: Live at Buddy Guy's Legends, played the Montreaux Jazz Festival, toured for three years as part of Junior Wells' band and co-composed the score for season one of The Bear. He's a great guy to chat with and this conversation was really fun. www.theclaudettes.com (http://www.theclaudettes.com) www.theclaudettes.bandcamp.com www.stereoembersmagazine.com (http://www.stereoembersmagazine.com) www.bombshellradio.com (http://www.bombshellradio.com) www.alexgreenbooks.com (http://www.alexgreenbooks.com) Stereo Embers: THREADS + IG + BLUESKY: @emberspodcast Email: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com
Born on June 3, 1982 in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, Davey Jones brings the rich musical heritage of the Deep South to every stage he steps on. A true multi-instrumentalist, Jones is best known for his searing guitar playing but also masters drums, piano, bass, organ, and more — often performing and recording nearly every instrument on his releases himself. Drawing from Southern Rock, traditional Blues, Gospel, and Country, he has forged a distinct and powerful sound that pays homage to the greats while remaining unmistakably his own.With more than 30 years of writing and performing, Jones has built a reputation for high-energy, soulful shows that connect deeply with audiences. From his early days playing in Southern churches and gospel groups to rocking county and blues stages across the region, his journey has led him to share bills and stages throughout the United States. His dynamic live performances and genuine connection with fans have become his signature — a philosophy best captured in his own words: “It's simply not enough to put on a good show, you've got to involve the audience and make them feel like the show is dedicated to them. Because, at the end of the day, this show is for them.”Jones' talent has been recognized with accolades including “Most Talented Musician” for the state of Louisiana in 2000. His playing draws favorable comparisons to blues and rock icons such as Tab Benoit, Buddy Guy, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Chuck Berry. His music has received airplay on “Blues Legends” radio and major blues playlists, further cementing his place among today's most compelling blues and roots artists.Whether headlining clubs, festivals, or theaters, Davey Jones delivers the kind of authentic, roof-raising performances that remind fans why they fell in love with the blues.https://daveyjonesmusic.com
In this Music Matters episode host Darrell Craig Harris speaks with The Claudettes prolific bandleader, composer, and producer Johnny Iguana from his home in Chicago. Johnny has toured and recorded with a long list of legends in the blues and rock world including members of The Rolling Stones! The Claudettes: Six albums into their lauded career, the Claudettes (of Chicago) continue to put a fascinating new spin on American roots music. Blues and R&B are laced with punk spirit and film-noir moods to create the band's singular "garage cabaret" sound. The Claudettes have earned worldwide acclaim with their recordings and concerts that are equal parts heart, musicianship and theatrical flair. Force-of-nature vocalist Rachel Williams (who dominates the stage like a glam-rock rebirth of Annie Lennox) and renowned pianist/songwriter Johnny Iguana join the positively heroic rhythm section of Zach Verdoorn (bass, guitar, vocals) and Michael Caskey (drums). Outside the Claudettes, Iguana has toured with Junior Wells and Otis Rush, played on many Grammy-nominated albums and recorded with Buddy Guy, Junior Wells, Derek Trucks, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Johnny Winter and more. Johnny is also composer of the score for the Emmy-winning smash FX/Hulu series "The Bear" and has released two solo albums on the eminent Chicago blues/jazz label Delmark Records. website www.TheClaudettes.com www.Instagram.com/the_claudettes About Music Matters with Darrell Craig Harris The Music Matters Podcast is hosted by Darrell Craig Harris, a globally published music journalist, professional musician, and Sports Illustrated photographer.

We're coming to you from Cracker's Campout, where the music is loud, the stories are better than any liner notes, and the distance between the crowd and the artists basically disappears. From the song-swap to the final-night blowout, the whole weekend feels like stepping inside the world that shaped Cracker and Camper Van Beethoven. The heart of the show is audio with David Lowery and producer Dennis Herring as they unpack stories on Camper Van Beethoven, Cracker's The Golden Age and more. You'll hear how label pressure collides with creative risk, why “Pictures of Matchstick Men” mattered as a gateway into Key Lime Pie, and how the smallest production decisions can steer what listeners feel on first contact. We also get deep into recording and arranging details: basic tracks, mixing choices, string arrangements, and the kind of obsessive vocal work that turns a good song into a lasting one. We widen the lens with Dennis's producing stories beyond these bands, including Buddy Guy sessions and the odd way awards can chase the “wrong” album at the “right” time. Then David breaks down what “The Golden Age” really means, leaning into irony and unreliable narration. If you love rock history, music production, and the stories behind classic albums, this one's for you.

While it would be easy to categorize the work of OTIS as Southern Rock, being from Kentucky, their musical background is much broader. In addition to being guided by the classic rock giants of the 1960s and 70s era, the members of OTIS draw inspiration from true greats—people like Muddy Waters, Leadbelly, and the artists of Motown—to create their own unique rock and roll sound.With Boone Froggett on guitar and vocals, John Seeley on bass, Alex Wells on guitar, and Dale Myers on drums, the members of The Otis Band are staying connected to their Kentucky roots. Growing up around traditional instruments like piano, fiddle, and guitar instilled in them an appreciation for country-rock, bluegrass, gospel, and folk music. Kentucky's rich musical heritage led them to discover the Rock and Blues heroes that continue to influence the bands original material.After releasing Tough Times: A Tribute to John Brim,—Former Chess Records Blues Recording Artist— in 2014, OTIS joined Cleopatra Records in 2017, with the release of their second album Eyes of the Sun. A chance meeting with ZZ Top's Billy F. Gibbons led to the legend listening to Otis and becoming a fan—even handing their albums off to the likes of Buddy Guy and Jeff Beck! Four songs from Eyes of the Sun were also included in the soundtrack of the 2020 film Street Survivors.OTIS has a new track out called I'm Wicked part of a forthcoming album out sometime in 2026!For more on the band checkout their website! https://theotisband.com
