Technical difficulties mean that I have been unable to record a show this week so, instead, here is another chance to catch a show which aired a year ago in which I wander off piste and bring you tracks from all over! There are four tracks from or featuring the late Jeff Beck, four tracks from artists with the most distinctive voices and to round things off some West Coast Swing!
Join me and Taj Mahal, Jeff Beck and the Big Town Playboys, The Yardbirds, Jeff Beck featuring Joss Stone, Thorbjørn Risager & Emil Balsgaard, Chris Rea/The Hofner Bluenotes, Tony Joe White w/ J.J. Cale, Jhett Black, The Cadillac Kings, Toots Lorraine & The Traffic, Geraint Watkins and The Customtones.
