The Roadhouse Podcast #512

A family emergency pulls me away from The Roadhouse for a week. Show 200 stands in for show 512. I hope to be back next week with the final new version of The Roadhouse for 2014.

The 200th edition of The Roadhouse Podcast marks a strong year in the blues, with a look at my top 10 blues releases of 2008. We hold the milestone show celebration for the 4th anniversay in February and, instead, keep the spirit festive with more great blues Christmas cuts. It’s a celebration of the holidays and the best of 2008 in the 200th Roadhouse Podcast.
