It's got to be blues

Thu, 02 Jul 2009 13:08:55 GMT

I'm on the radiogram tonight entertaining the entire world (and beyond) at 8pm GMT, with yet another splendid edition of Rockin' The Blues! http://getreadytorockradio.com/

The show now has it's own MySpace over here. http://www.myspace.com/rockintheblooze

The Mr H Rock Profiles on Saturdays 18:00, Sundays 20:00, both GMT, look like this;

Saturday July 4: Joe Bonamassa
Sunday July 5: Thunder

There is also a new edition of Blues Matters! out now. http://www.bluesmatters.com/

Issue 49 features me, me and ME, as well as some blues dudes and gals. If you have a Borders that doesn't look like a bombsite, you may find them in the music section. If not, buy one online at http://www.bluesmatters.com/. There's also some kind of digital subscription thing that, frankly, I don't understand.

Finally, there's a new Instant magazine out as well. Featuring me! Waxing lyrical about space rock. http://www.instantmagazine.co.uk/

If you're not in Embra, you can download a copy here, in all-singing, all-dancing* pdf format. http://www.instantmagazine.co.uk/previous-issues/current-instant.pdf

*Singing and dancing are not included
