Give it to me.

I decided against trying to do a Thanksgiving-based blues show. I found a few tracks, but wasn't that fond of them musically. In 3 show's time (on December 16th) I will have a fantastic 2.5 hours of Chrismas- and New Year's-based blues. So this show is a higgledy piggledy collection of stuff I pulled out of my iTunes library, with somewhat of a focus on crossover blues rock and country blues from the Southeast esepcially during formative years in the 1970s. I will do what Mr J. Giles commands and give it to you live on WMSV 91.1. FM, Sunday, November 18 from 8:30-11:00 PM CST.
