Related Links
Since every listing in the gig guide contains links
to individual band/artist/promoter websites (when known) we've decided
we're not going to have those links duplicated here, otherwise we'd just
end up with a very large list that would mean nothing unless you happen
to know a particular band (and then you'd probably already know their
website address).
So links here are for general purpose interesting sites relating
to the blues. If you think yours should be included then let
us know...

mix of old and new, plus Bob chats about music and culture and even tells
jokes!
Outstanding pre-war blues internet station. Great site too. Check out our
feature here
 Bluesinlondon is
offically
lovin' Joe Cushley's 'Balling The Jack' show
on Resonance 104.4 FM. Tuesday from midday
to 3.30pm, it's an hour of eclectic music in the broadest blues sense.
Just how we like it!
"Balling
the Jack explores the way The Blues has interacted with art-rock, electronica
and punk over the last 40 years.
"
The show also takes time to shine
some light on the darker corners of the idiom's earlier history. Competitions
and special guests enliven this eclectic, Clapton-free celebration
of the Thirteen Bar Blues".
Frankly, we think the show should be on for much more than
1 hour a week, and why no podcasts? If you
agree then get onto www.resonancefm.com and
make your feelings known!
