June 9 Show: Blues Skies

The theme for this week's show is just a sound that I had in my head after listening to "S.O.S." by Ronnie Earl and some of the other songs I'm featuring this week.  Lots of cool, piercing guitar, some keyboards, laid-back but upbeat rhythms, and kind of a hopeful sound overall.  So sit back, relax, and enjoy some great blues!
