Podcasts about magic slim the teardrops

As happens occasionally, the next hour of The Roadhouse focuses on the feeling. Monster Mike Welch and Mike Ledbetter, Magic Slim & The Teardrops, Jai Malano, Lynwood Slim & Kid Ramos, and The Juke Joint Rockers & Willie "Big Eyes" Smith made the final cut along with a load of other great blues artists. Sometimes it's worthwhile to just follow that feeling - the feeling that this will be another hour of the finest blues you've never heard - the 812th Roadhouse.

Money is the theme in the kitchen this week and all of these artists are going to be singin' about it for you: The Paul Butterfield Blues Band, Bessie Smith, Camille Howard, Elvis Presley, The Drums, Pink Floyd, Magic Slim & The Teardrops, Pinetop Perkins & Willie "Big Eye" Smith, ZZ Top, Zac Wilkerson, Odetta, Backtrack Blues Band, The O'Jays, Herbert Butros Buckingham Khaury, and The Piano Connection with Marcs Boogie.  Cha-ching!!!

Show # 270 - Live, Uncut & Uncensored Conversations With "Musicians You Should Know" Slam Allen began his musical journey performing in the family band, The Allen Brothers before spending nine years as guitarist, lead singer and frontman for the legenday James Cotton. Now, his new album Feel These Blues is showcasing Slam as his own man, forging a new trail. Slam and I will talk about his journey and we will explore his many influences and what it feels like to influence the new generation of Blues Artists. Anthony Gomes was raised in Toronto and began plying in his early teens.In the late 90's he moved to Chicago and had a brief stint with Magic Slim & The Teardrops before he was recognised as "Best Unsigned Blues Band" by Buddy Guy's Legends. His music has charted on Billboard, been awarded numerous accolades and awards and now Anthony has release Electric Field Hollar with a dozen original tracks. Anthony and I will discuss his career. In addition to his solo albums, Jason Ricci has appeared as a guest harmonica player on albums with Johnny Winter, Ana Popovic, Walter Trout, & The Mannish Boys among others. He was named "Best Harmonica Player" at the 2010 Blues Music Awards, and has won a Grammy Award for his contribution to the 2014 Johnny Winter album Step Back. In February 2015, Ricci began a national tour with a new band named Jason Ricci and the Bad Kind. I will speak with Jason about his road, which has not always been so smooth. WORLD PREMIER - Victor Wainwright returns to The Couch to share his upcoming release Boom Town two weeks before it drops! The album is a winner and Victor and I will discuss the last year of touring and getting healthy and more.    

In this edition of The Roadhouse, you can look forward to Magic Slim & The Teardrops, Samuel James, Paul Rishell, Albert Ammons, and some new music from Robert Cray. I've got a set of acoustic blues, some piano blues, and some straight ahead Chicago stemwinders . It's all wrapped up in a clean blue package of the finest blues you've never heard - the 398th Roadhouse.

There's an avalanche of new blues in this edition of The Roadhouse. More than three-quarters of the show is music that's been released in just the past two weeks. Mississippi Heat, Robert Cray, Magic Slim & The Teardrops, Taj Mahal, and Albert Collins make up the headliners in the hour, but they're just part of an exceptional hour of blues - an exceptional hour of the finest blues you've never heard: the 393rd Roadhouse.
