Pacific St Blues & Americana
Playlist: March 6, 2022

It's been a bit of a wild week. The show's no more disjointed than usual. We focus on a few artists with short sets of songs by Marvin Gaye, Van Morrison, Stevie Wonder, and Irish blues-rock. With St. Pat's day just around the corner, Van Morrison, Thin Lizzy, Gary Moore, and, of course, Rory Gallagher only made sense. As always, thanks for spending time with me, at the gym, or in the car. If you enjoy the show, tell someone. We use a lot of covers to draw a wider listening audience - a bit of something somewhat familiar. 

Thanks - Rick
