Tuesday Bluesday Brings Our Big, Bad Blues EP, Our AOW, and ‘Live’ Albert Collins Later, February 27, 2024

Good morning, blues lovers and welcome to another Tuesday Bluesday here in The Mermaid Lounge. It’s always a full house here on Tuesday.

9:00 a.m. Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blues: Various Artists

What do Robert Johnson, Bonnie Raitt, B.B. King, Ry Cooder, Susan Tedeschi and John Lee Hooker all have in common? They’re all part of this great playlist of blues artists. We even have artists who have paid homage to the blues, although they may not be considered pure “blues” artists, like Linda Ronstadt, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers and Canned Heat. Either way, it’s five hours of uninterrupted blues to kick off Tuesday Bluesday.

Queen is back for their second spin with our Album of The Week, Sheer Heart Attack, the band’s third studio album and the one that put them on the map worldwide.
