Tune in Monday, May 20th @ 1:30PM for an interview with delta blues artist John Hammond with DJ Jon the Reptilian.
John Hammond is one of the few artists around performing acoustic traditional country & delta style blues. Over the past 60 years he has recorded 36 albums and performed extensively.
“John’s sound is so compelling, complete, symmetrical and soulful with just his voice, guitar and harmonica, it is at first impossible to imagine improving it… He’s a great force of nature. John sounds like a big train coming. He chops them all down.” -Tom Waits
“John Hammond is a master… He is a virtuoso. A Conjurer… A Modernist… John is in a very small circle of men with a guitar and a harmonica. Jimmy Reed, Howlin’ Wolf, Bob Dylan. The guitar is an orchestra. He’s sending messages. Storytelling. All mystery. Protection. The language goes out through the night… The Big Boom. Boom the room.” – T Bone Burnett
