This episode, harpothehealer and RJ kick off with their letter bag and a slightly lighthearted discussion on listeners letters etc.

This is followed by a general discussion on the concept of 'style' within the blues music genre, and different players.

George Harmonica Smith is profiled within the episode, discussing his career, style and some of his tunes.
