Juke Joints

I had the pleasure of meeting Charlotte Taylor in Clarksdale before another Festival and even crossed paths while doing research for other updates.  I miss the Juke Joint Festival and hope you will enjoy listening to an edited version of our talk we had around lockdown. Send us Fan MailSupport the show

I spoke with Ben in February. We have never met face-to-face. This was an interesting interview. I hope listeners make a connection to him as I have with @benfoy His self bio is Wannabe photographer/ daydreamer. Not just abandoned stuff 🙄 ^cripplingly self aware^- I think after this interview, we have more than photography and music in common. Fighting a step back with an unfortunate illness and making changes can be things people may not see, yet be an inspiration.Send us Fan MailSupport the show

I spoke with Roger Stolle of Cat Head Delta Blues & Folk Arts in Clarksdale to see how the ice storm and Mississippi were recovering.  All is back, and it's time to look forward to to Traveling Down the Delta Blues Highway and exploring all, especially April's Juke Joint Festival.Send us Fan MailSupport the show

Had a fun phone conversation with Blues artist Libby Rae Watson. I happened to find her traveling Instagram @liberaetor and talked food, travel, off the beaten path, her music. This is the edited version of a conversation that felt like I was talking to a friend I hadn't caught up with in awhile. Send us Fan MailSupport the show

It's always been a pleasure to speak with Mr.Ferris.  His documentary work over decades  were noticed by the Grammys and he's encouraged me to keep on, and let people's voices be heard, as he has. I always feel honored and blessed  to speak with him and I hope you enjoy his story and our talk of the Blues.Send us Fan MailSupport the show

Get an insight into the museum. I've been going there since it was a living museum and now is a memorial. King made it his home and it is a place you want to stop by along your trip down the Delta Blues Highway. Send us Fan MailSupport the show

I was doing an interview and Mrs. Delsie Davis walked in. Since my illness- pre-Covid and the podcast during covid, I came across audio, I had recorded six months before I lost memories. I have some of this trip but audio makes it sound like it was a good one. B.B. King says he has two years of his childhood he can't remember- I could not fathom but now I can. This is the beginning of the podcast taking a break. Send us Fan MailSupport the show

In honor of Juke Joint Festival- We are talking about the Blue Front Cafe and Po'Monkey's to have a little fun. An experience is an experience and you have to get off a travel guide and ask sometimes where to go. Send us Fan MailSupport the show
