Podcast SummaryMost of the podcast are segments from my programmes on local radio, usually featuring blues music but sometimes interviews. About TesstifyI have always been passionate about music of all genres and in my early teens I began collecting records. It just so happened that I was living in London when the Enlgish bands began to take off but rather than being keen on the mainstream bands of the day I became interested in the British blues bands such as John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, Alexis Korners blues Inc, Chris Farlowe and the Thunderbirds, Georgie Fame and the Blue Flames and the Spencer Davis Group. Through these bands and others I discovered American blues, R & B and jazz. I saw all the great American bluesmen who toured in the UK and many of the great British blues and rock bands. At age 15 I had a Saturday job in a record store and all my spare cash went on buying records. There were import shops in London where I bought many records on the Stax, Sue, Chess and other US labels. This was a really exciting time for music because it was all new. Nowadays it is much harder to find music that is new and exciting so often I return to my old records which I think have stood the test of time. I do like to support contemporary artists though so am continually checking out new music. I also go to many live gigs and spend a lot of time in the US. For nine years now I've been a presenter on local radio so the podcasts are taken from those programmes. I also have an onlline radio station Bluesgroove http://www.live365.com/stations/tesstify2 where I feature music from my large collection! Followers
