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

All right now, you find the Memphis sound in the most unusual places. The band is called Trafic de Blues and they're from France. We heard "Tribute To The Kings" and "Steady B".

I found the band on jamendo.com, an internet site with thousands of free and legal downloads. The internet is a great place for independent artists to promote their music and Jamendo is a great website for the artists and their fans. All of the music I'm playing tonight is from Jamendo.

You're listening to Something Blue on KASU and we're on the internet too. Log on to the Something Blue website at sbblues.com to hear the shows as podcasts anytime. And log on now to participate in the liveblog discussion about this show, in progress.

Next up another band from France called the jpfmband. Their album is called Paris SF and we'll hear "Besse A Stress" and "Shuffle For KM".

Oh yeah, great music from the jpfmband. Go to jamendo.com to hear the whole album.

And now I've got Jampy. I won't try to pronounce the album name but it's spelled Nghzk, and the song is called "Trying to Play Some Jazzy Blues".

Ok now, kicking off the set, another one from Jampy called "Noris". And then the only vocal tonight. Amanova sang "What A Way To Be".

You're listening to Something Blue on KASU, the home of the Blues every Saturday night.

Next we have a band that mixes Jazz and the Blues into their own sound. They're called 2extended and here's "Caught In Your Dreams".

All right, that's 2extended doing "Musty Boogie" from their CD Blue Dreams and Musty Watermelons. Closing the show tonight is another great song from Trafic de Blues, "From St. Denis". Until next time this is Hairy Larry reminding you once again, Blues is the mainstream.
