The Downtown Music Festival is taking place this weekend here in NYC, so for the TAS report with Dennis Elsas, I thought I'd bring in some music from one of the bands I'm most excited about seeing at the festival: Ducktails
I played the song, "Letter of Intent" which I've also included the video for if you wanna take a look.
Today we celebrate the birthdate of Robert Johnson - Father of the Delta Blues. His recordings of "Cross Road Blues", "Love in Vain", "Sweet Home Chicago" and others became blues blueprints influencing everyone from Muddy Waters to The Rolling Stones to Eric Clapton. Johnson performed and recorded before electric guitars became popular. So for today's Question of the Day, let's have your favorite acoustic blues. Leave your suggestion in the comments below and we'll spin a set this morning.
Here's what we played:
Weeknights at 10, we bring you into The Alternate Side!
