Jazzism 18.4 - Wang, Dang, Doodle

About this episode

This episode explores the influence of film on jazz and blues music, inspired by the movie 'Sinners'.

It's as if I have been seduced and placed under a spell! I wonder, is there such a thing as a Blues Vampire? If so...one must have bit me when I attended the Keb' Mo - Taj Mahal concert in June.
