New Month/New Music New Releases Show

November 2/4

It’s “New Month/New Music” time as Crossroads teams up with Global Village and Strange Currency at the beginning of every month to feature the best in new blues releases.

Among the highlights this time:

Maria Muldaur with a salute to Blue Lu Barker

Swamp and roots master Tony Joe White (who just passed away last week)

The Knickerbocker All Stars featuring singer Thornetta Davis

‘Steady Rollin’ Bob Margolin, best known for his long stint with Muddy Waters

A new compilation of classic singles from New Orleans’ blues great Earl King

And Crossroads kicks off the November blues organ trio with new albums from Mike Bogle, Bruce Katz and more.

Chris Heim produces and hosts Global Village, a nationally and internationally distributed world music show; the nightly jazz show Night Train, and Crossroads, KMUW’s twice-weekly blues and R&B show. Chris is also a critic and freelance writer whose work has appeared in the Chicago Tribune, Utne, Global Rhythm, Dirty Linen, and Option, among others.
