About this listen
In this installment of The Blues Hotel, host Kelvin Huggins takes listeners on a soulful journey through the enduring power of the blues, weaving together obscure pioneers like James “Stump” Johnson (aka Snitcher Roberts), rare 78 RPM treasures from Alex Moore, and iconic classics from John Lee Hooker, Bo Diddley, and Memphis Minnie, alongside the fiery grit of Australia’s pub rock scene with Carson, Dutch Tilders, and Cold Chisel. From Dave Hole’s electrifying slide guitar at the Melbourne Blues Appreciation Society to the poignant contrast between Creedence Clearwater Revival’s tender Long As I Can See the Light and Cold Chisel’s raw reimagining, the episode celebrates the blues as both survival and storytelling, connecting Chicago streets to Melbourne bars.
