Blues Train Radio newsletter - May 28th.
Firstly, apologies for the lack of recent newsletters - as always, my playlists are available via my blog a few days after each show anyway via Playlists - which is due to be fully updated this week.
My most recent show was a very special one, as I was joined for the whole hour by JO HARMAN ( website ) who is one of THE rising stars in the UK soul and blues scene. Jo chose the playlist of songs that have inspired her, plus we aired three of her own songs, including forthcoming single, Worthy Of Love. We also had a chat about all sorts of things and I feel it made it a very cool and interesting show, so please check it out:
BLUES TRAIN - JO HARMAN SPECIAL - CLICK TO LISTEN
PLAYLIST:
Jo Harman and Company - Through the Night [ CD: Live at Hideaway ]
Foy Vance - be with me [ Hope ]
Mavis Staples - will the circle be unbroken [ Have A Little Faith ]
Jo Harman and Company - Sweet Man Moses w/ Watersign Horns [ Worthy Of Love EP ]
Muddy Waters - I just wanna make love to you [ Electric Mud ]

I honestly feel that this format is great and something that I haven't really seen elsewhere yet. Other shows have guests in but rarely let them choose the whole playlist, so I hope you can all support this - and look out for future guests doing the same thing!
NEXT LIVE SHOW - Sunday June 3rd 4.30-5.30pm FromeFM.co.uk
As always, please support what I am doing if you can, not just for me but mainly for the artists themselves, as they all deserve your ears! If any of you can help plug the show on your web pages too, that is always appreciated.
