Off The Railroad Tracks blues mix

Having been unwell this past week with a flu bug I wasn't able to record the links between songs for the next show so decided to do a mix, this one reflecting my love of rhythm and blues. There are three tracks by Robert Cray, two from the late '80s and early '90s and one from the album pictured below. I saw him in concert a few times back in the day and was fortunate to see such legends as BB King and Buddy Guy as well as a little known duo who went by the name of Little Whitt and Big Bo. Their music was very much in the style of Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee who I reckon were the masters of the acoustic guitar and harmonica type of blues. So if the blues is your thang, sit back and enjoy this mix.
