Blues Moon Radio show Tuesday, Jan. 5, 2010

Tonight's Blues Moon with Clair DeLune radio show is dedicated to the Blues and musical artists who left us in 2009.

Miss Clair is suffering a lot of sadness after compiling such an extensive list. She is counseling herself to consider the wealth of beauty and happiness these people provided, rather than dwell on the fact that they are gone forever from our Earth. She has been somewhat successful, but has a ways to go.

She might or might not get through all the announce breaks, so keep checking back on the Blues Moon Radio blog (refresh your screen often -PC's can use F5; and everyone can hit the little arrows next to the browser url window - otherwise you won't see the updates) for updates to the list in case she gets too choked up to talk.

Super thanks to the Rock Doc, Rocky Faith, for contributing music from some artists that I did not have.

If we have time, Clair has brought a wealth of new music from 2009 - with some preference to local artists from sunny (but COOOOOOLD) South Carolina.

Wishing you all a safe, happy, prosperous, kick-@$$ 2010!
Thanks for listening...

Preview of my reviews to come; some music, some art.

On Day Three of the New Year my resolution to try to reduce backlogs is underway. I am reviewing CDs I've gotten in the past month, so I can play new music on the radio show.

I know... the show is more about history than new, but we have to keep up with what is going on in Blues today in order to keep the genre alive. So, there's that whole balance in life thing in its interplay. Love that!

What are you Blue about this new year? What can I play that will help target (and hopefully lift a load from your spirit) your woes? I'm on Facebook and Twitter (admittedly much less often than I should be) and always happy to hear from you. Click on the links at left to friend or follow me.

Good news... Gary Erwin has posted the brochure for the Charleston Blues Bash online at www.bluesbash.com - please join us for the kickoff to the Carolina Blues Year.

And I've discovered a Blues Art artist I was not aware of before... that's three this week...Paul Lachine (he's a Blues Machine!)...  check his work at:
