Join Kelvin Huggins as he dives deep into the tangled roots and resonant echoes of October 27th in blues history.
On this date, the blues walks a tightrope between heartbreak and celebration. October 29 marks the loss of legends like Dwayne Allman and Muddy Waters, whose passing closed chapters in blues and rock history. Yet it also celebrates the births of guitar greats Peter Green and Otis Rush, whose tones reshaped the genre. From W.C. Handy’s “Beale Street Blues” to the transatlantic fire of The London Howlin’ Wolf Sessions, and modern releases by Joe Bonamassa and Danny Bryant, this episode explores how one day reflects the blues’ eternal rhythm—grief and grit, legacy and lift.
