Jan 7 : Bruce Iglauer. We're thrilled to have the Founder and President of Alligator Records as our guest DJ. Iglauer will tell stories and give his take on the personalities of some of the greatest bluesmen and women he's met, including Koko Taylor, Son Seals, Johnny Winter, Luther Allison and Katie Webster.
Jan 14 : Gaye Adegbalola. Adegbalola is the lead singer and cut up of Saffire-The Uppity Blues Women. In case you didn' t know, she announces her orientation with authority on her new CD "Gaye without Shame."

Marshall Lawrence The Morning After (independent)
He's a native of Edmonton, Alberta but plays the bottleneck guitar as if he grew up in the Mississippi delta. Lawrence penned 9 of the 13 songs on this CD, and they stand up with his covers of Tommy Johnson and Willie McTell. Light touches of mandolin and banjo and his use of space on this CD give The Morning After a fresh sound to acoustic blues.
