This week on The Blues Hotel, we take a powerful journey through the evolution of blues—from the haunted echoes of the Delta to the soul-soaked streets of Chicago and the raw stomp of Texas juke joints. Episode 35 shines a light on both legends and buried gems, with tracks from Big Mama Thornton, Muddy Waters, Skip James, and Rory Gallagher, alongside standout performances by Australia’s own Pete Cornelius and Matt Dwire. We revisit timeless classics in the “Then and Now” segment, unearth forgotten treasures in “Buried in the Blues,” and explore the stories behind the songs in “Backstory Blues.” With fierce emotion, gripping history, and fresh Aussie fire, this episode proves the blues is more than music—it’s memory, movement, and meaning.
