Good morning, bluesologists! We’ve got a great lineup today for Tuesday Bluesday starting with five uninterrupted hours of blues from the bayou.
Here’s your Tuesday Bluesday lineup:
9:00 a.m. The Best of Louisiana Blues: Various Artists
Today we bring you blues from Ray Charles, Lillian Glinn, Slim Harpo, Fats Domino, Clarence “Gatemouth” Brown, Rodney Harris, Roosevelt Sykes, Shirley & Lee, Papa Lightfoot, Guitar Slim, Annie Laurie, Fats Matthews, Big Joe Turner, Erline Harris, Mary Butler, Little Walter, Marcia Ball, Dave Bartholomew, Allen Toussaint, Dr. John, Professor Longhair, The Neville Brothers and more!
4:00 p.m. In The Spotlight: The Music of Ellen McIlwaine
With her great blues vocal style and her searing slide guitar, Ellen McIlwaine should have been a star, yet could only achieve cult status. Here in The Mermaid Lounge, she’s a favorite.
8:00 p.m. Tedeschi Trucks Band Live at Red Rocks Amphitheater, Morrison, CO, August 30, 2012
One of the finest big-ass blues bands on the planet with the amazing vocals of Boston-born (proud to say) Susan Tedeschi and the best blues guitarist on the planet in Derek Trucks. A great way to close out Tuesday Bluesday.
Before, in between and after, we give you our big, wide Open Stream. We never close up shop here. We’re going all day and night. And we’re all about the music. The button is below.
