In this edition of The Grapevine, it's Blues night...but with a very special and cool twist...we are gonna shine a big ol' KDRT spotlight on one of the best records to come down the road in a long, long time, Dave Alvin's, "11/11".
I have cherry-picked a few tracks from this outstanding album in previous broadcasts but this time wanted to play as much of it as I could time permitting. In anticipation of a solid sender show coming up at The Palms (Gene Taylor Blues Band, featuring Dave Alvin) I also included a couple of tunes by The Blasters to highlight the classic piano work by Gene Taylor...one of the last great barrelhouse blues players.
Hope you all enjoy listening to this broadcast as much as I did puttin' it together!
Here's a real cool vid of Dave Alvin & The Guilty Ones tearing through a live version of "Run, Canejo Run" written about & dedicated to his pal, Chris Gaffney:
