SAWMILL GRAVY BLUES .... The strange and mysterious artists who seem to have little background, that is until we start digging and then all kinds of facts and statistics begin to appear. One example was a fantastic artist rejoicing in the name of 'Lucille Brogan'. We thought it would be a good idea to research this lady and play a few of her recordings. Sadly, she was sub tagged as a 'Dirty Blues Artist' and we soon found out why. Without being too explicit, if we were to edit out the obscenities and profanities of her recordings, we'd be left with a about 5 seconds to play. This slot is about are special productions, featuring a specific artists or genre of the blues. How about you, is there an artist or subject you think we should feature, if so we'd love to hear from you, and we'll do our best to research your suggestion. How about we bring you on air to talk about your favoured subject?

By contrast, we dip a toe, tentatively , into the 50s / 60s and even the 70s. They too, have a message for us - listen and know the blues. We reflect, that as we travel back in time, are we not listening to the stories of those who KNEW the blues. .
