In the history part of tonight's show we're going back to 1927 for a song by Sippie Wallace followed by music from Blind Willie McTell, Billie Holiday, Blue Lu Barker, H-Bomb Ferguson, Muddy Waters, Billy Boy Arnold, Homesick James, James Brown, Paul Butterfield, Cornell Dupree, and A.C. Reed. We'll close with songs from Otis Ali Blues Group who'll be performing at Upstairs on Thursday and Paolo Stante playing at Brutopia on Saturday.
