Guitar!

THIS WEEKEND ON T-BONE’S PRIME CUTS:

GUITAR!!

Ernie Isley

Ernie Isley

For this week’s show, I wanted to feature some of my favorite guitarists.    Had a tremendously hard time narrowing it down to just a few.  About halfway through the process- I realized that this will have to be a monthly or quarterly type show… too many guitarists, too little time!  This week is PART ONE!

James Honeyman Scott

Etta, one year later…

THIS WEEKEND ON T-BONE’S PRIME CUTS:

We look back on the career of Etta James on the 1 year anniversary of her passing.

Etta-James

Etta James:  January 25, 1938 ~ January 20, 2012

Etta’s career spanned a variety of music genres including Blues, R&B, Rock and Roll, Soul, Gospel and Jazz.  And she was a MASTER at each and every one of them.  This week’s T-Bone’s Prime Cuts is a tribute to the late, great Etta James.

We’ll be joined by The Beehive Queen: Christine Ohlman (from the Saturday Night Live Band and her own band, Christine Olhman & Rebel Montez.)  Christine will share some of her memories of Etta and will also introduce 4 of her favorite Etta tracks.    http://www.christineohlman.net/

Chelle Rose (her “Ghost Of Browder Holler” album made all the year end top 10 lists) shares her favorite Etta tune with us.   http://chellerose.com/

Steve Cropper, although not able to call in for the show, did send along a message with a few of his favorites for us to play!    http://playitsteve.com/

A show like this was too much for one person to handle, so I called on my old partner in crime Cary Allen Fields  (from Redbud Radio and Fields of Bluegrass) to lend a hand!   http://redbudradio.com/    http://fieldsofbluegrass.com

Remembering Duck Dunn

Donald “Duck” Dunn
(from the 1980 film, “The Blues Brothers”)

This week, T-Bone’s Prime Cuts pays tribute to Donald “Duck” Dunn.   Duck passed away this past May while on tour in Japan.   Many people know him from The Blues Brothers movies or as the bass player in the Stax house band: Booker T. & the MG’s.  I wanted to dig a little deeper in his catalog though, and came up with tracks from 18 different artists he played with.

Booker T & the MG’s

We’ll feature tracks from Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett, Booker T. and the MG’s, Eddie Floyd, William Bell, Albert King, Sam & Dave, Johnnie Taylor, Delaney & Bonnie, Muddy Waters, Jesse Ed Davis, Freddie King, Elvis Presley, Joan Baez, Rod Stewart, Eric Clapton, Bill Withers and The Blues Brothers.

T-Bone’s Prime Cuts airs in the 2nd hour of the Redbud Radio 3-hour block on WICR, 88.7 FM in Indianapolis at 1:00 AM Eastern Time – Saturday night/Sunday morning.  And at 8:00 PM Eastern on DJCR 1670 AM in San Antonio, TX.
