We\u2019ve also got the undisputed pioneer T-Bone Walker and the classic New Orleans piano roll of Al Broussard showing everyone how it is done, flowing beautifully into the sharp guitar work of Kai Strauss and Gary Dranow.\nFor the roots and acoustic heads, we are diving deep into the sounds of Reverend Freakchild, the legendary pairing of Ry Cooder and Taj Mahal, and the vintage vocals of Blue Lu Barker. Then we shift gears into the heavy hitters, featuring a stellar run of Buddy Guy, Red Red, and the absolute master of the Telecaster, Albert Collins.\nThe quality just doesn't drop this week. You will also hear the Quintus McCormick Blues Band, the gritty brilliance of Ian Siegal, and the unstoppable force of Gabe Stillman. Wrapping up a proper session of the good stuff, we\u2019ve got Little Steve and the Big Beat, Bad Temper Joe, Sunjay, the powerhouse vocals of Samantha Martin and Delta Sugar, and the brilliant Guto Konrad.\nYour tracks, our regular features, and a whole lot of great music.","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/img.hearthis.at\/6\/5\/4\/_\/uploads\/9657207\/image_track\/14396122\/w1200_h628_q70_ptrue_v2_m1779545246----cropped_1779545242456.jpg?m=1779545246","thumbnail_width":1200,"thumbnail_height":628,"html":"
