Blues by Podcast

I was showing a friend how to use the iTunes shop the other day, when I stumbled across the "Blues Shop Podcast." This is a great site, run by Josh Jones. After subscribing I downloaded the most recent podcast which included 30 minutes of terrific, contemporary blues. The best part of all was that it cost nothing (who said there's no such thing as a free lunch).

The range of music I got was impressive too. Geographically, there was material from as far afield as Brazil and Australia as well as more likely places like Mississippi. Not only that, but every flavour of blues was represented; from acoustic piedmont blues through electric chicago blues and even some blues/rock from Australia.

Well done Josh! Keep up the good work.
