Every few months I air one-hour radio specials as a part of my Lost Music Saloon radio shows. Today I'll air 'Robert Johnson: The Centennial Celebration' about "the man and the times in which he lived, the myth of his 'deal with the devil' at the crossroads, and the music he created". It's a music-intensive hour that features interviews with and commentary from Robert Johnson's grandson, writers Peter Guralnick and Scott Barretta, and musicians Corey Harris and Warren Haynes.
I'll aim for airing it around 5:30-6:30 tonight, give or take 5 minutes or so. The half-hour before and after the special won't be restricted to blues at all, but will be more in line with my usual playlists, with perhaps a somewhat bluesier slant.

See you in the Saloon!
