Listener Comments
John:
"I’ve heard so much great blues that I’m a bit overwhelmed trying
to write down titles, etc. I surfed over to GarageBand.com for the
great Billy Marquis tune "Black and White" only to find that the CD is
sold out. I note that they have some free downloads there but is there
a way to purchase tracks online??"
Debbie:
"You have made at least two hours of my work time much more
enjoyable and probably more productive. You see, I started with show 6)
and I literally was almost boogying in my cube at the end of the last
show! You’re turning me on to a whole range of music I never even knew
about."

Odeo
- "Odeo is a distribution and creation platform for audio
content. Our aim is to make it easy to discover, subscribe to, and
create podcasts.
- "The discovery part includes web-based aggregation of all the
available audio content that we can find. We want to make the growing
pool of stuff out there easier to find and listen to."
- "And the creation side involves various tools for publishing
audio, whether people have existing content or the own creation tools √Ǩ
or if they just want a simple way to record their thoughts and put them
out there, using our web-based Odeo Studio or the phone-posting
system."
- "I think different people are attracted to different mediums.
We√ǨѢre hearing from a lot of people who tried blogging and didn√ǨѢt
necessarily take to it who are very excited about podcasting. But there
are certainly others who are much more comfortable writing than
speaking."
- "We think that some audio content will be worth paying for,
and we want to enable that, as well as enabling advertising for those
podcasters who want ads (on a revenue-shared basis). If we can do this
better than other people, we think there√ǨѢs a business there."

Blues News
- April 10, 1956, the Stratocaster was patented by Leo Fender. Went on to change the face and sound of both the blues and rock music.
- April 10, 1958, Dick Clark devoted an hour of his
American Bandstand afternoon TV show to the memory of Chuck Willis who
had died earlier in the day at age thirty. Willis was from Atlanta, GA
and recorded hits that included: "C.C. Rider", "Betty And Dupree",
"What Am I Living For (his biggest hit)" and "Hang Up My Rock And Roll
Shoes".
- April 12, 1954, "Shake, Rattle and Roll" by "Big" Joe
Turner was released. Recorded in New York City, it was released as
Atlantic single #1026. Again, another fine example of the blues’
influence on what would eventually become rock and roll, as the song
was released in 1956 by Bill Haley and the Comets.
- April 13, 1954, Little Walter, Otis Spann, Jimmie
Rogers, Willie Dixon, and Fred Below joined Muddy Waters to record
Willie Dixon’s "I Just Want To Make Love To You" in the Chess studios
in Chicago. Willie Dixon was responsible for a huge number of blues
hits that came out of Chess studios. "I Just Want To Make Love To You"
has since been covered by countless blues and rock artists.
- April 15, 1965, Howlin’ Wolf, backed by both Hubert
Sumlin and Buddy Guy, recorded "Don’t Laugh At Me". Buddy Guy was
recently inducted into the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame. Hubert Sumlin
was a longtime guitarist for Howlin’ Wolf and James Cotton. Both Buddy
Guy and Sumlin have a real "over the top" style and the combination of
the two on "Don’t Laugh At Me" was both wild and winning.
