Blues Stage KGNU radio show
Hosted by Ruth Brown
Broadcast  June 11th 1990


I wish I had more episodes of Blues Stage
but this is the only one I've heard..
KGNU is still going. Pity they don't have
an online archive of past broadcasts.
They were just one of hundreds of stations
on the National Public Radio networks though
so maybe I should do further research.
Ruth Brown hosted the show from 1989 to 1995.
That's all I know.
regards
Titus

  1. Thank you for this nice broadcast.
    The first track is "(You Can Have My Husband But Please) Don't Mess With My Man " and the singer is Marva Wright.
    Otis Rush's last number seems to be Gambler's Blues.
    Best regards,

  2. Thank for the input. Guess I am too vague on this obscure (to me) music. Still finding my way
