Following news of his recent passing I wanted to give podcast listeners the chance to enjoy the show I made in the company of blues legend Otis Grand.
Recorded in an afternoon spent in Otis' front room in 2012 following the release of his superb album Blues 65 I handed control of the playlist and the storytelling over to Otis and it made for one of the best shows I think I've ever been a part of. Otis' knowledge of the blues, and the people who made the music was unrivalled, and this shows it off.
Hit play and enjoy this journey through one of the finest collections of music along while paying tribute to one of the greats of the blues.
