Since it’s Black History Month, we thought we would get another special episode planned for you listeners today. Today we’re focusing on the rhythm, jazz, and the blues of Black History in Canada. We’ve got a bluesy feel-good playlist for you. As well as the history of five iconic Black musicians in Canada. We’ll be revealing each of the 5 artists within the next hour of our show.

Very nice presentation on Sayyd-Abdul Al Khabyr. Saw him with his son at the Tulip fest many years ago . Wat a surprize that was. Thanks Pete

Wow, that's amazing Peter! I can only imagine how it was to see Sayyd perform live. (And especially with his connection to the Ottawa community
