Join Kelvin Huggins as he dives deep into the tangled roots and resonant echoes of November 14th in blues history.

November 14 echoes with the pulse of blues history—from the dusty slide of John Henry Barbee to the jazz-blues finesse of Art Hodes and the harmonica fire of Carey Bell. This episode honors the birth of genre-bending talents like Anson Funderbergh and Aynsley Lister, while remembering legends like Junior Parker and Eddie Map whose voices still ripple through the music. We drop the needle on landmark recording sessions by Louis Jordan and Bob Dylan, tracing the evolution of blues into swing, jump, and folk-rock. And we spotlight the vibrant present: Eugene “Hideaway” Bridges in New South Wales, Jools Holland in Bournemouth, and harmonica masterclasses in Midhurst. From studio sparks to festival stages, November 14 proves the blues is not just remembered—it’s reborn, night after night.
