My Best Guess: Pull up a chair, pick up that guitar, and take a load off your mind as you pour out your heart with Sirius Blues, where you'll hear all the great blues classics, as well as some of today's blues-inspired hits.According to Sirius: From Beale Street, Chicago, the Delta and wherever someone grabbed a guitar and poured their soul into a song - blues from the 78 RPM days to today, by masters like John Lee Hooker and B.B. King and the keepers of the flame like Keb' Mo'.
Curt's Rebuttal: Apart from naming all the specific artists and geographic locations, I came damn close again. Grabbing a guitar, pouring out something, yesterday and today...was pretty accurate, I have to say.
Sample Playlist:
- Etta James, Baby, What You Want Me To Do
- Otis Rush, Three Times a Fool
- Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Blue or Black
- Taj Mahal, Early in the Mornin'
- Albert Collins, I Ain't Drunk
- The Blues Brothers, "B" Movie Box Car Blues
High Point: Just finally getting to the blues portion of the dial, and away from the overload of jazz...and the one day of new age music.Verdict: While it was fun to listen to, and I'd been looking forward to this, it was more because it would be a change of pace, as opposed to really being something that I'd tune into again on a regular basis.
