Episode #312 of Blues From The Ouse, broadcast live, delivers two hours of classic blues, modern blues and blues-rock, chosen by feel — not algorithms.

The show opens with brand-new releases, including a world-exclusive radio play from The Stumble, alongside new music from Samantha Fish, Tom Davies & The Bluebirds, and Dirty Shoes Band.

From there, the focus shifts to power trios — raw, lean blues with nowhere to hide — featuring Cream, Rory Gallagher’s Taste, The James Gang, and early ZZ Top.

The first hour closes with one-chord blues and hypnotic grooves from John Lee Hooker, RL Burnside, Junior Kimbrough, and Hound Dog Taylor, proving that feel beats complexity every time.

Hour two is driven by listener requests, including live blues, modern UK artists, deep-cut Stones, and contemporary blues-rock, plus Ben’s UK blues gig round-up. The show winds down with timeless West Side blues from Otis Rush, Magic Sam, Smokey Wilson, before closing in style with Freddie King.
