Longcat Weekly Improvisation video podcast

When I was in London a couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of joining the singer, pianist & composer Robbie Knight for his Longcat Weekly Improvisation video podcast on Saturday, May 17, hosted, produced & recorded with improvised music by Robbie Knight. This was podcast #100 of Robbie’s show, so we had a ball doing it together. The next day I was back in Amsterdam to see Harmonica Shah & his Detroit Blues Band at the Bimhaus for their 2:30 pm blues matinee, with the great Detroit bluesman Harmonica Shah on lead vocals & harmonica, Chris Rumel on bass, R.J. Spangler at the drums & Harry Oman on guitar. I unsheathed my little digital recorder and captured a few tunes by the Shah & company to play for you here, closing out this episode with a track from my new DETROIT ALBUM with the Motor City Blues Scholars.
