Renny's Riot
Wednesday February 21st, 2024 with Regretfully Renny
A musical tribute to "Singer, guitarist, artist and bon vivant, Dexter Romweber..." who has died far too soon. Then a feature of the original blues, R&B and gospel that Elvis covered in his career. Finishing with a request for some Piedmont Blues.
