Episode 19
Episode date - June 28, 2024
As a Texas native and a pioneer of West Coast Blues, it would be near impossible to overrate the influence of T-Bone Walker over blues guitarists who came after him.
We featured T-Bone in show #9 in this series, and with this show, we will feature three guitar legends who owe a tremendous debt to him, including one ‘student’ who would become a legend in his own right, with a career that spanned over fifty years.
