The Blues Hour

About 9 years ago, I got REAL tired of commercial radio..the classic rock station, Q104.3, plays the same songs and has endless commercials..so I started listening to WBGO 88.3 on your radio dial, with no commercials. They are based in Newark N.J. and is a jazz and blues station. Shortly thereafter, I became a member, since they had one of their pledge drives, and I get to go to members parties, get free cd's every 3 months along with hearing great music. But right now is the Blues Hour, every Mon-Fri 3-4 in the afternoon. They just played Robert Cray, Derek Trucks, The Allman Brothers from the Fillmore East and now they are playing Stevie Ray Vaughn who would have been 59 tomorrow. Just unbelievably great stuff.
