The Roadhouse 055
The 55th Roadhouse Podcast ignores the speed limits for a fast hour-long cruise of the blues. Like a ‘57 Cadillac convertible, we roll with Watermelon Slim, Sue Foley, Shannon Boshears, West of Memphis, and The Mike Andersen Band. Plus, a little spring cleaning means The Roadhouse is feeling more spacious and sounds even better. More indie artists and your suggestions make for a fun hour of the finest blues you’ve never heard – the 55th Roadhouse Podcast.

Hi Tony,
Love the changes to the show – the new bitrate really does give it a crisper, cleaner sound.
I’d also like to say how impressed I am with that Saffire Uppity Blues Women track you played on show 54. This might be a strange comparison to make, but it reminded me a heck of a lot of Shirley MacLaine’s “If they could see me now” song from the musical, Sweet Charity.
Keep up the good work!!
