Loading...		Living With the Blues

		September 15th, 2010 ~ This week on American Routes we're roaming the highways, byways and crossroads in search of the blues. We sit down with blues humanist Bill Ferris to talk about his life documenting music, visit with Delta piano blues chanteuse Eden Brent and catch up with Baton Rouge to Chicago "legend" Buddy Guy. Hang out with us on Hwy. 61 at Teddy's Juke Joint, hear some Hill Country family jams, and stories from the master of the gut-bucket blues, Little Freddie King.
