Tonight on Cha Cha Cha In Blue we're still COVID aware and this is my 155th show recorded at home. Let's start with new singles from Tomiko Dixon and Adam Karch, plus get well wishes for Bonnie Raitt. This week's featured new releases are from Brad "Guitar" Wilson, Jimmie Bratcher, Mary Stokes Band, and Dudley Taft. In the "history" part of the show I've got Big Bill Broonzy, Blind Willie McTell, Big Maybelle, Muddy Waters, Little Walter, James Brown, Homesick James, Carey Bell, and Michael Burks. We'll close with a song from Shane Murphy in advance of his shows Friday & Saturday at Brutopia.
