Master of the slide guitar Roy Rogers and harmonica virtuoso Norton Buffalo are tonight’s featured artists.
I open with Roy tearing up the blues with his unique style and voice. In the middle are a few videos of Roy and Norton together, closing with Norton bring his versions of the blues and rock.
Both artists are from the San Francisco Bay area and can be found at local venues throughout the area when they are not touring.
Roy has been awarded six Grammys as producer of albums by Ramblin’ Jack Elliot, and John Lee Hooker. He has toured with John Lee Hooker and his own band The Delta Rhythm Kings as well as having released eight solo albums.
Norton has been a longstanding member of the Steve Miller Band and has recorded on over 175 albums with artists ranging from Bonnie Raitt to the Marshal Tucker band and even Hawaiian Slack Key guitarist George Kahumoku Jr. with their collaboration awarded Hawaiian Slack Key Album of the year.
