Saturday from 7 to 8pm, the Blues KRUUz takes you on a musical voyage away from mopery and indifference and to an altogether more involving (and entertaining) engagement with the world via the musical magic of seasoned mood-shifters like Junior Parker, Geno Delafose, Slim Harpo, Chuck Berry, Big Walter Horton and Boozoo Chavis.

Some sizzling zydeco, some earthy blues from the gritty, urban streets of Chicago, some acoustic guitar-tickling...hey, wait a minute! Dang, out of time again! Go ahead and tune in this week, but I'm already stuffing the leavings into next week's bag.

Rebroadcast Wednesdays at midnight.
