Twisted Pine Hitting the Big Time?
I hope so, they deserve it. This band entranced all of us at the Arden Gild Hall a couple of months back. I love booking shows where the audience experiences the genuine thrill of discovery. Which they did in Arden. Oh, and everybody made money! Anyway, the booker for the Kennett Flash was there, and […]

We’re doing classic blues this week. Meaning real blues. Thanks for your suggestions. We’ve got some extraordinary songs. Starting with this one:

OK, I admit it. Verdict on this week: Good theme, poorly executed. Shoulda asked Waterpirate to program it. Hope he likes this one:

Let’s get back on track. No more appeasing the youngsters. What she’s asking for is not unreasonable in the least:

A great John Hiatt song. And his version is the best. Yes, better than Joe Cocker’s version. BTW, anybody got a theme for next week? Give me a theme, and I’ll give you some songs. For now:

Buddy Guy does serious justice to this John Hiatt song. And, oh, yeah, Bonnie Raitt tears it up as well. Best slide player in the world?:
Delaware Political Weekly: May 4-10, 2018
1. It’s Carper-Harris For Real. Any lingering questions as to whether Carberbot would go to the post this year were answered as Shufflin’ Tom filed this week. A nominal Democrat, Carper will once again be carrying the banner for, and filthy lucre from, big banks, big pharma, the insurance industry, and all the other Third […]
