STAR BLUES for Charlie, Charley and Charles. We also said a farewell to Popsy Dixon (Holmes Brothers)


With three million on the streets in Paris the least we could do was to have a playlist made from fifteen artists christened thus. One of the songs to mark Popsy Dixon's death seemed to fit the mood, especially from a band with such a gentle and joyful outlook. That cover of Nick Lowe's song was a little outside our normal envelope and he Candye Kane composition came from a place that looks for similarities rather than trying seek out differences. Plenty of regular blues fare as well, and all being well we're back at 10pm (GMT) next Sunday round your place with as much trivia, tomfoolery and vinyl blues as one man can carry. Until then take care of yourselves and take care of those that take care of you
