If you like your blues a little more rocking and little more distorted then you have to get yourself a copy of this, there will of course be links up on both Instagram and Youtube to their pages where you can find details of how to get your copy
Now, unfortunately there was some human error during the middle third of this interview, I forgot to press record on the zoom meeting, so if you are watching this then all you will see is The Blues Jam Podcast logo for that middle third.
