Topic: BluesFest 2012 on BBC Radio 2
I forgot to mention this yesterday and was a little surprised no one else did either. Paul Jones' programme on Radio 2 last night was a 2 1/2 hour show featuring excerpts from various excellent London gigs during the last week featuring interviews and music from Robert Cray, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Ian Siegal & The Mississippi Mudbloods, Gov't Mule and Eric Bibb. You can still catch the show and some bonus tracks on the BBC website on the link below. The full show on iplayer appears to be available for only another 6 days whereas the individual tracks seem to be for up to one month. I hope the latter will be available to those overseas as it was an excellent programme and well worth catching in whatever way you can. 
KWS' incendiary playing had me texting Pete and Kenny to check they were listening.

“The guy who has helped the blues industry the most is Joe Bonamassa and I would say he is more rock than some rock stuff, so to me blues is whatever you want it to be!”
