In honor of this weekend's spectacular blues festival in Lafayette Park, tonight's show will feature Wild Jimmy Spruill. Who?
You've not only heard Wild Jimmy Spruill tart ultra-twangy guitar, you loved his music. Unfortunately you probably heaped your praise not on sideman Wild Jimmy Spruill but on Wilbert Harrison, Noble Thin Man Watts, The Story Sisters or Bob Gaddy who Jimmy accompanied. But it was Spruill's guitar that hooked you.
Tonight, take an audio tour through your listening past and connect that sound with the session musician that brought you that joy - Wild Jimmy Spruill.
