About me: Bob and Norm present the Blues Show on GTFM 107.9, in South Wales and LIVE on World-Wide Web, every Monday from 10 to midnight. They play the best in Blues, from Delta to Chicago to London to Texas. Blues Show Bob says: 'We feature anyone playing Blues music well on our show. We are comfortable with playing music from pub bands alongside International megastars.' During the years in which we have been broadcasting the Blues Show, we have interviewed many great Blues performers including Savoy Brown's Kim Simmons, Tony McPhee, Walter Trout, Connie Lush, Lazy Lester, Studebaker John, Alvin Youngblood Hart, Zoot Money, Paul Jones, Dave Kelly, John Mayall, Eric Bibb, Joanne Shaw Taylor, Buddy Whittington, the late Long John Baldry, Nine Below Zero, Oli Brown, Dani Wilde, Dr. David Evans, Toby Walker and many more. We have also given World Premieres to a number of CDs by such diverse performers as Danny Bryant, Gregg Wright, Ian Parker, Blue Traffic, Dozy and Storm Warning. We have also hosted a number of Blues Festivals introducing many stars of the Blues world like John Hammond, Hubert Sumlin, Pinetop Perkins, James Cotton as well as a multitude of British Blues performers. A fairly recent development for the Blues Show is the number of artists keen to come to the studio to record Live sets. So far we've welcomed Hamilton Loomis, Derrin Nauerndorf, Ian Parker, The Boogie Men, Brazilian Big Gilson, Sherman Robertson, Ian Siegal, Dave Arcari, The Spikedrivers, Rob Tognoni, Racing Cars, Aynsley Lister, Steve Arvey, Blue Traffic and Jay Tamkin to our studio. Many well-known names - including Danny Bryant, Sean Webster, Jack The Biscuit, Claire Simone, Stevie Finn and SJ3 are queueing to record for us. Why not join the list?

Tonight, we'll be looking forward to this weekend's Abertillery Blues Festival. Joining us by phone will be legendary Andy Fairweather Low who will be headlining the event and will be telling us what it means to bring his music home to the Welsh Valleys.
Tune in if you can. Love to have your company!
QUESTION:
Is this now the only dedicated Blues Show broadcast to the World from Wales? Or is it simply the best? (Welsh rhetoric is supposedly famous the world over)!
Blues Show Bob & Norm
Who I'd like to meet: Robert Plant - He's like a manic depressive of the octaves. I admire his work and have now forgiven him for almost bursting my eardrums with Zeppelin in 1972! (Long John Baldry once confided to us that he saw Zeppelin playing the Marquee in their early days but they were so loud, they made his nose bleed)!*******
Eric Clapton - He's probably done more to popularise Blues music than anyone since Muddy Waters. I take my hat off to him and if he's ever in Pontypridd, we'll spare him a few minutes. Might even make him coffee and invite him to relax and play guitar with us... (Bob will jam with anyone; teach them a couple of chords). **********
Muddy Waters and Billy Holiday - sadly, too late!
