American Routes for September 18, 2010
8:00 PM - 10:00 PM
[Program Website]
Today's Highlight: "A Thousand Miles From Nowhere: Blues from the Delta and Hill Country"
This week on American Routes, we're roaming the highways, byways and crossroads of the Magnolia State, looking for all kinds of blues. We sit down with noted blues scholar Bill Ferris to talk about his lifelong obsession with the music of his home state, and visit with Delta piano blues chanteuse Eden Brent to learn about her music mentor Boogaloo Ames. We set out north for Holly Springs and some Hill Country family jams. Then we head towards home to hang out at Teddy's Juke Joint, and catch up with the master of the gut-bucket blues, Little Freddie King
Produced in New Orleans and distributed by American Public Media.
