 Speaking of this week's Riverwalk radio show, I mentioned how much I liked
John Sheridan's arrangement of Hoagie's "Washboard Blues."

Russ Guarino asks:

Russ, I have not heard very many arrangements of that tune.  John's
arrangement is so good, I can't imagine anyone doing it any different.

In that arrangement, they vary the tempo.  You really should listen to it.

Listen to this week's show either on the Internet from the Riverwalk site,
or on the radio.

You can also get their recording.  I can't remember which album it is on but
I'm sure Mop can tell us.

Best,

Bob
