Code Blue Episode September 3, 2022

Vancouver Blues in the Rear View Mirror

3:00pm - 5:00pm

Today we take a fond look back at the early days of blues and R&B right here in Vancooooover. The earliest track on today's show is from 1975, and the most recent from 2003. Almost all the songs from today's show are taken from obscure singles or long-forgotten CD samplers, some recorded live in the very juke joints where these musicians played.
