The 367th Roadhouse is without an official frame. There’s such a variety that I’ve left it to you to decide how the music all fits together. Eddie C. Campbell, Janiva Magness, Big James & The Chicago Playboys, Heritage Blues Orchestra, and Nathan James & The Rhythm Scratchers lead this edition in fine style. Or – a fine variety of styles. But, as always, the varitey adds up to one full hour of the finest blues you’ve never heard.

    The final Roadhouse hour of 2011 is filled with smooth blues. Little Hurricane, Shaun Murphy, Big George Jackson, Carolina Chocolate Drops, and Etta James end the year in smooth style. The 358th Roadhouse is an hour of blues with few rough edges and is also, of course, another hour of the finest blues you’ve never heard.

    This week, we pay respects to the artists who passed in 2011. Big Jack Johnson, John-Alex Mason, George Mojo Buford, Doyle Bramhall, and Eddie Kirkland light up the little bandstand in the corner in this edition. With all due respect, the 357th Roadhouse really is another hour of the finest blues you’ve never heard.

    It’s the final Christmas edition of The Roadhouse for 2011, with a holiday track in every set. I’ve also got music from the Blues Music Awards nominations list that was released this week. Big Pete, Mac Arnold’s Blues Revival, Johnny Rawls, Mary Flower, and Jackie Johnson lay down great blues around some great holiday blues tracks. It’s an ad-free hour fit for celebration and another hour of the finest blues you’ve never heard.
