Mind Folk'd (Feb 10th)

In honor of Black History month, the show did a musical/historical survey of blues music featuring (almost) all African American musicians. Started off in the 1920's with the raw, roots-ey stuff like Robert Johnson and Son House, then moved our way up to the 1950's gospel/soul movement with guys like Sam Cooke and Ray Charles. Hope you all enjoyed it, I sure had a wicked time digging through the old stuff. So good. So raw.
