Piece Description

Rick Franklin and Michael Baytop are a blues duo with a new album called "Searching For Frank." Both of them sing and play guitar. Michael Baytop also plays harmonica, and percussion on the bones. "Frank" is Frank Stokes, a very important Memphis blues player in the 1920s and 1930s; in this hour we'll hear from him as well as from Franklin & Baytop, and another blues duo, Warner Williams and Jay Summerour. We also have some new jazz releases, from trumpeter Brad Goode and flute-player Nicole Mitchell, and a new track fom the high-emergy blues band Roomful Of Blues.
