Corky Siegel is known internationally as one of the worlds great blues harmonica players, blues pianist, singer-songwriter, creator of CHAMBER BLUES and the sole pioneer/composer of award-winning revolutionary works that weave blues and classical forms together. Co-founder of the SIEGEL-SCHWALL BAND, and Blues Hall of Fame Inductee, Corky Siegel has a catalogue of recordings on RCA, Vanguard, Alligator, and million selling blues/classical recordings on the iconic classical label Deutsche Grammophon. His close associations with the blues masters in the earlier days of Chicago blues, his essential part in the blues rock revolution, and his surprising success in bringing together blues and classical audiences make him a pivotal (though inconspicuous) figure in modern music history. “under appreciated national treasure” - DOWNBEAT MAGAZINE.  Corky Siegel

Our guest today used to be a fixture in the music scene in Oregon…then he got married and moved to Victoria…that's in Canada. Or maybe he moved first. I dunno. But whatever, that's where David Vest lives now. And he's won all kinds of national awards there. He is releasing his first recordings in three years. Two CDs, both live but very different from each other. One, recorded at a festival in Calgary and the other in a small club in Victoria. The festival is full of our favorite David Vest tunes, raucous boogie-woogie. The other is very subtle. I don't think there's a name for it yet The songs are familiar Blues tunes but the arrangements and the attitudes are…well it's almost Chamber Blues. Mr. Vest will tell it best. And we'll hear a tune from the club at the end.
