Aberdeen mississippi blues.

The 12/02/07 episode of BSB has a special theme, NE Mississippi blues from the Hill Country and the Black Prairie, spanning the area that runs southeast from Memphis to Tupelo along the Route 78 corridor and then more or less due south from Tupelo to Meridian along the Highways 45 corridors. I feature only homegrown local talent on this show, some famous some hardly heard before. The one exception is the final cut ("Return to Memphis") a welcome blues rejoinder by those famous "Union Men" out of Arkansas, The Cate Brothers.
