Episode 723 is coming from the Earthwork Harvest Gathering on the farm outside of Lake City, Michigan, where I’m playing tonight on the stage in the barn with the great Billy Davis on guitar, Peter “Madcat” Ruth on harmonica, Drew Howard on guitar and a host of bluesmen playing selections from my blues album called Fattening Frgs For Snakes, but here on the radio show I’ll; be playing several cuts by Billy Davis on No Cover Records, plus more classic blues and R&B music I found in my archives, rough mixes of numbers from my pal Bob Baldori’s forthcoming boogie woogiie piano album with fellow pianist Arthur Magliazza, and ending with a poem of mine adapted from an interview with Howlin’ Wolf conducted by Michael Erlewine in 1969 and here featuring Harmonic Shah on the Mississippi saxophone.
