Among a beautiful flow of fine podcasts, would like to recommend the
South Australian Roots and Blues podcast.
As usual, a very very fine presentation of very fine blues...

Note: it's necessary to subscribe, and to log in, in order to download the podcast....but it's easy to do, and it's free. There are so many fine blues podcasts it's impossible to keep up with them....have been riding the trains more, and listening at that time. This podcast stayed in my mind....but the other ones are fine, too. My profile page lists the other one's I'm listening too....and hope to get around to recommending, too.
Thanks to all the musicians who make their recordings availbe to the podcast producers, who devote hundreds of hours of volunteer work to bring these podcasts to us....how LUCKY we are!!
