The first half of the proGram featured a way to keep much of your ear time held in to the rhythm. A big greenarrowradio thank you to Hurricane Ruth for being a guest on the show. We spoke of her new album “Born on the River” (congratulations to Sean in Madison and Richard in Georgia for winning a copy) and how the songs are like chapters in a book, each word in them is experience from a true event and how keepin’ the blues alive is a brother and sisterhood of toGetherness.
