It?s a special edition of The Roadhouse, featuring winners from the 2013 Blues Music Awards. I managed to get most of the major categories into the hour ahead and include such great artists as Michael Burks, Tab Benoit, Janiva Magness, The Mannish Boys, and Ruthie Foster. The 428th Roadhouse is one edition where I break a bit from the tagline - ?the finest blues you?ve never heard? - to bring you just the finest blues, period, from the previous year.
