April 06, 2024 The Legendary 'Steady Rollin' Bob Margolin!
The legendary ‘Steady Rollin’ Bob Margolin drops by on this episode of Time Signatures for a fantastic discussion about life with Muddy Waters (1973-1980), his 7 a.m. jam with Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, Muddy and others, and the guitar he purchased and used on the 1975 Muddy Waters Woodstock Album… a guitar he still uses and plays today. Truly one of the best, and the interview is most assuredly one of a kind.
