Black History Month: Blues
B.B. King, 1971 (Wikimedia)
They say you have to suffer if you want to sing the blues. Well, here you have to make a request if you want to hear the blues. We'll focus on Black artists as part of our Black History Month programming, and we'll spin a set.
Hear your requests weekdays after 9 a.m.
Today's set:
- John Lee Hooker "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer"
- Taj Mahal "Cakewalk Into Town"
- Nina Simone "Blues for Mama"
- Gary Clark Jr. "Don't Owe You a Thang"
Sponsored by the Bruce Museum in Greenwich, CT, featuring "Ursula von Rydingsvard: States of Becoming."
