Saturday Matinee – Ruby Dee & The Snakehandlers, The Black Keys, Janiva Magness, and Ry Cooder w/ Buckwheat Zydeco & Lenny Kravitz

Ruby Dee & The Snakehandlers “plays an Americana that encompasses Texas honky-tonk, Bakersfield twang, Memphis rockabilly, Western swing and good old-fashioned rock’n’ roll.” This song doesn’t really fit any of those categories, but it’s nice and easy.

The Black Keys‘ breakout video from 2010… or maybe it wasn’t.

Janiva Magness covers Tom Waits.

Ry Cooder, Buckwheat Zydeco and Lenny Kravitz, having some fun in New Orleans 2005.

Too much heat, stress and attitude for me this week. Tell you all about it on the porch when the time is right.

Saturday Matinee – 2020 Cast Interviews, Big Bug, Gatemouth Brown & Roy Clark, Ry Cooder w/ Buckwheat Zydeco & Lenny Kravitz, and The Fabulous Thunderbirds

Clarence Gatemouth Brown & Roy Clark (with Leon Rhodes) do some serious pickin’ on Hee Haw (1979). If this ain’t roadtrip music, nothing is.

Ry Cooder, Buckwheat Zydeco and Lenny Kravitz, having some fun in New Orleans 2005.

The Fabulous Thunderbirds cover T-Bone Walker‘s The Hustle Is On (1950). Not sure of the date or location.

That’ll do for now. Gonna get some R&R and see you back here tomorrow as far as you know.
