Beefing Up The Standard Rotation With The Blues, September 21, 2020

While you’ve been enjoying all the great blues music over the past day or so, we’ve been busy adding several hundred classic blues artists and their songs to our standard rotation. That means, going forward, you’ll hear them along with the rest of our stream as a matter of routine.

We’ve added several hundred new blues selections in the last 48 hours.

Here are the artists we’ve recently added:

  • Roomful of Blues
  • Bobby “Blue” Bland
  • Muddy Waters
  • Little Walter
  • The Robert Cray Band
  • Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac
  • Stevie Ray Vaughan (solo and with Double Trouble)
  • Marcia Ball
  • Howlin’ Wolf

We expect to be adding more artists again over the next day!

Call It Simple Programming Sunday: We Pay Our Respects to Peter Green, Premier Blues Guitarist and Co-Founder of the Original Fleetwood Mac & Joni Mitchell Owns Our Album of The Week, July 26, 2020

Good Morning, Ungovernables! Today we pay our respects to Peter Green, co-founder of the Original Fleetwood Mac (they really are two quite different bands with and without Peter), and we keep the women front and center with Joni Mitchells Miles of Aisles.

Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac-1

Here’s your Sunday Funday line-up!

11:00 a.m.    Album of The Week: Miles of Aisles by Joni Mitchell   NEW!

Released in 1974, this Joni Mitchell album is a collection of songs from the tour she did in support of her brilliant album, Court & Spark. Not only was it Mitchell’s very first live album, but it was her first tour with a backing band. In a brilliant move, she chose Tom Scott & The L.A. Express.

I saw this tour on its trip through Beantown. It was at the Music Hall when it really was the music hall, and it was — hands down — one of the best live shows I’ve ever seen.

3:00 p.m.     Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac, Live at The Warehouse, New Orleans, January 30, 1970   NEW!

Peter Green and The Original Bluesy Fleetwood Mac opened The Warehouse with this show back in the day when they were a blues band and not a bunch of pop-rockers. Although he led a troubled life after he left the band, his contribution to the blues cannot be denied. He passed yesterday at the age of 73. Today, we pay him the respect he deserves.

I can’t fathom what the hell Americans are thinking. It matters not, though, because the rest of the world is listening in. We’ve always bee playing catch-up, no matter what they tell you about American Exceptionalism. It’s overrated.

Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac, Bob Dylan & George Harrison’s Adventure, and Bob Marley & The Wailers Live, Wednesday, November 13, 2019

Good Morning, Ungovernables! We have a sweet line-up today, heavy on the blues.

Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac

Here’s today’s line-up:

11:00 a.m.     Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac, Live at The Warehouse, New Orleans, Part 1

2:00 p.m.       Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac, Live at The Warehouse, New Orleans, Part 2

Did you know that the original Fleetwood Mac’s singer was a guy named Peter Green, not a girl named Stevie Nicks? And did you know that Black Magic Woman was originally a Fleetwood Mac song, not a Santana original? You do now!

5:00 p.m.       Bob Dylan & George Harrison Almost Went To See Elvis (1997)

Bob and George were supposed to do a recording session with Elvis. According to Bob, Elvis never showed up. But according to George Harrison, it was not Elvis who stood them up. It was the other way around.

9:00 p.m.      Bob Marley & The Wailers Live at The Santa Barbara County Bowl

The Legend. Live.
