about

If you like your blues raw and gritty, then join us as we head down to Maxwell Street. That’s where filmmaker Mike Shea went with his cameras in 1964, to make his legendary slice-of-life documentary, "And This Is Free." In the process, he captured some of the greatest live blues recordings ever made. Join us for a trip down to Maxwell Street, on this episode of Blues Unlimited.
