Hello friends! We decided to dig this one out of the archives to help celebrate Halloween.... and what could be more appropriate than having the blues at Midnight.....it goes together like mom and apple pie and hot dogs and baseball, right? In the meantime, if you LOVE THIS RADIO SHOW, we’re asking for your support. Quite simply, loving = sharing, and if you’re willing to spare just a few bucks a month.... $2, $4, heck... even $10 a month.... that will help guarantee the future success of this radio show, new episodes in the production pipeline, and a podcast posted here every single week for you to listen to, without fail. Please consider a modest donation -- whatever you can truly afford. Think about it this way.... a decent cup of coffee at a national chain costs $2. Would you be willing to give up ONE CUP OF COFFEE A MONTH to help insure the continued success of this radio show? Also, we’ve got some AWESOMELY COOL incentives and thank you gifts, as well as our ETERNAL AND UNDYING THANKS. Check it all out at https://www.patreon.com/bluesunlimited And now.... on with the show! Join us as we explore blues songs that all have to deal with the subject of midnight. Sometimes, you get midnight showers of rain, other times, it's the blues that come down at midnight. You might be out late having fun with your friends, doing the "Midnight Jump" or the "Midnight Boogie," or you might be sad and lonely, because your baby left you at midnight. Classics, gems, and rarities galore from Leadbelly, Leroy Carr, Bessie Smith, Big Bill Broonzy, T-Bone Walker, Little Willie Littlefield, Lowell Fulson, Roy Brown, and many more! Pictured: The first known recording of “The Midnight Special” by a blues artist, Crying Sam Collins, from 1927.
