If you missed today's show..shame shame shame. We had such great music today!! Kicking off with Frank Zappa canoodling with a kazoo and harmonica then blasting straight into hip-hop and R&B tunes with more of techno/disco-ish rhythm...and filled with harmonica riffs! If you weren't able to hear the first half of the show, I highly recommend checking out the music yourself. We heard some awesome indie-folk and indie-western stuff with sloppy sporadic harmonica jams as well as some beautiful jazz harmonica from Toots, Brendan Power, and Jean-Jacques Milteau. Milteau usually does modern blues so this was a treat. ALSO!! Tony Dekker from Great Lake Swimmers was telling us why we should all get harmonica's :) well..not really..just more along the lines of how its such a universal instrument and its so easy to play and we should all learn to play one! You can hear him for yourself for free! on NPR's itunes podcast..soo-pear cool. As a must and as we do everyshow, we heard some phenomenal blues players; some more classic players as Hooker, Wells, Cotton, McDowell, and Wolf mixed in with more modern players like Kashmar, Piazza, Harman, and Rick Estrin. Hope y'all enjoyed the show! I sure did...

Keep Harpin' Dj Kamakazzi
p.s. I'm not gonna be here next week so Jake Bacon from Buffalo Bayou is takin' over my shift, he'll do a great job and I hope you call in for some requests!
