CD Reviews - March 11, 2014
by Clair DeLune, Blues Moon Radio

Record Label: Blind Pig



Each of these is recommended for those new to Blues and for confirmed aficionados as well:




























NOTE: attempts are made to assure that material meets FCC guidelines or is marked accordingly for the benefit of the station's compliance, but I take no responsibility or liability for anyone other than myself in playing cuts over the air in terms of FCC rules - DJs should make their own review of the content of these CDs before airing. I post these reviews here so that listeners might determine if these are CDs they would like to purchase for their own entertainment.

Blues Moon Radio playlist for March 11, 2014

Tonight's theme will be St. Louis Blues - I've worked on getting many of the great St. Louis natives, and those who have been strongly influenced by SL Blues represented tonight - but there are more whom we just cannot fit in.

We'll revisit this again. What fun to explore these amazing artists' history.

I recommend looking the artists up individually, but please also visit this fine site: http://www.bluesworld.com/OTHERPRE.html


Here is our playlist for the show... as usual, there might be some additions, changes, deletions, but as a guide, it's pretty close. There will be changes based on pure whimsy if I know my druthers.

I also highly recommend you add the Smithsonian Classic Blues collection (1 and 2) to your music library... http://www.folkways.si.edu/find_recordings/SmithsonianFolkways.aspx

Thanks for tuning in.... please enjoy!

March 4, 2014 playlist

We had some technical difficulties and could not post the playlist... until today...
Our station theme for this Spring's semi-annual fundraiser was "Road Trip Playlist" so where better to head (virtually - or in reality) than New Orleans via a side trip to Memphis. Here are the songs we selected from (not all were played and some were added - will try to perfect this list if possible for posterity!).







Thanks to those who participated in our fundraiser. We cannot do it without the public's support.

Again, deepest appreciation!
Clair DeLune and the brilliant and cute RockyDawg - I know it is for him you really donate. Woof!
