About this episode

The late 60’s developed some of the biggest names of the Blues in Chicago. Along with Howlin’ Wolf, Buddy Guy, James Cotton and others, there was a group of young white guys that learned from these future legends, and they began making a name for themselves along the way. Corky Siegel and Jim Schwall began their musical partnership simply as, “Corky and Jim”. For all the details on the rest of the story, please join host Jim Ervin as he welcomes Corky Siegel for an in depth discussion about those early days in Chicago. Siegel was also responsible for developing a sub-genre known as Chamber Blues in the late 60’s as well. It’s a trip back in time you do not want to miss!
