Still Got The Blues

Thursdays - 8-10pm Koast Radio - website

Harry's programme Still Got The Blues showcases the best in R & B music both nationally and internationally including blues from the pioneers of the genre to those taking the music forward today. An emphasis will be on promoting local blues clubs and gigs, hopefully with some live music as well, space permitting.

Harry has loved the blues since the late 60s having seen many bands live at the well known Redcar Jazz club such as local lad Paul Rodgers Free, Taste, Vinegar Joe and having bought his first blues album Muddy Waters Live at Newport. That with the music of the early John Mayall and Fleetwood Mac albums really turned him on to the blues and as his show says he's Still Got The Blues today!
