This week's show has Wynonie Harris trying to explain his bad behaviour to a judge, Amos Milburn giving up booze (for a while) Big Fancy gives us some modern honky-tonk, we'll hear a gospel record featuring bluesy harp playing, an openly gay 1950s singing duo and B.B. King's first big hit plus a lot more. Backbeat is also available in a 56 and 58 minute versions in three separate files if you want breaks. I am happy to provide custom station IDs, promos and liners. Email Lorne@Backbeatradio.com or visit www.backbeatradio.com for more information.
