Blind Willie Johnson
Last Friday, before Self Help Radio, I produced another hour of my country blues program, Woke Up Early One Morning Blues. This hour focused on early gospel & religious-themed recordings.
The show is now available for your listening pleasure (scratchy, hissy, old bakelite vinyl-y) at the Self Help Radio website. I hope you enjoy. What I played is below.
