The Legends of the Rocking Dutchman - episode 106

Legends Mix

Music from the early thirties to the late fifties in a mixed bag - well pretty much as you're used from me. But for me, it's the two thirties blues that do the smash for today, with one of the only eight sides ever recorded from the obscure Jabo Williams and a moving prison blues of Lonnie Johnson. But judge for yourself, you might make other choices. It's all great music anyhow.
