Jay White, Cut To The Bone

Welcome to Something Blue. I'm Hairy Larry and I've got the blues, for you.

Jay White, Hole In My Heart
Jay White, I Need You

All right now, that's Jay White playing the blues for you. From his CD Jaywalkin' we heard "Cut To The Bone", "Hole In My Heart", and "I Need You". Great stuff. Jay's guitar work is just burning and these are all original songs.

Something Blue is broadcast on KASU, 91.9 FM and streaming on the internet at kasu.org.

I'm Hairy Larry host of Something Blue. Paul Nunis, The Bluescaster, turned me on to this next vocalist, Cecile McLorin Salvant. She is my jazz vocals find of the year. Just amazing. We'll hear "You Bring Out The Savage In Me". I found Kerry Leigh on reverbnation.com. We'll hear him playing two of his own songs, "Governor's Blues" and "Lauren's Lullaby".

Kerry Leigh, Anger Grows Reprise
Cecile McLorin Salvant, I Didn't Know What Time It Was

Now that's what I'm talking about, Cecile McLorin Salvant singing "I Didn't Know What Time It Was". I can hear Bessie Smith and Sarah Vaughn in her voice but she's her own self and she's a force of nature. 

Before that we heard Kerry Leigh play the title track from his CD, "Anger Grows".

Now here's Cecile McLorin Salvant with the title track from her CD, "Woman Child" followed by the McCoy Tyner Trio and Michael Brecker playing "Flying High". Until next time this is Hairy Larry reminding you once again, blues is the mainstream.
