On the next edition of Blues Unlimited, a look back to some of the greatest moments of live blues performance. From B.B. King’s classic ‘Live at the Regal,’ to Muddy Waters’ ground-breaking performance at the 1960 Newport Jazz Festival, to Robert Nighthawk’s low-down (and jaw-dropping!) gutbucket blues recorded live at Chicago’s legendary Maxwell Street Market in 1964, to Magic Sam’s incredible performance at Ann Arbor in 1969, we’ll have two hours of not just great blues, but some of the greatest blues ever recorded, period. Don’t miss this extra special edition of Blues Unlimited, only on Tucson’s Community Radio Station, KXCI, 91.3 FM, this Wednesday from 2-4am. Or listen online at www.kxci.org.
