Each month we ask a member of the community to tell us what music they’ve been digging.
For over 30 years, Maureen Byrd-Blue and I have passionately dedicated ourselves to selling music at our hat store, Blue-Byrd’s, with a strong focus on the vibrant and soulful genre of blues. Since 2018, I have had the privilege of hosting the renowned blues show “Blue’s People” on Radio Kingston, where I share my deep love for this timeless music with our community. Join me on this journey to celebrate and preserve the power of the blues!
Currently, I am enjoying these new releases: Room on the Porch by TajMo [AKA Taj Mahal and Keb’ Mo’], Strike Up the Band by Little Feat, Young Fashion Ways by Kenny Wayne Shepherd and Bobby Rush, Crowin’ Around by Professor Louie and the Crowmatix, Lookout Highway by Charlie Musselwhite, Back for Me by Janiva Magness, Truth Is by Carlyn Wonderland, Grown in Mississippi by John Primer, Heartbreak City by Larry McCray, and Gonna Be 2 of Those Days by Jimmy Vivino.
