Radio b – House Rockers Jamboree Roll up the carpets and break out the bottle – the weekend is finally here. Time to celebrate with two hours of Rhythm & Blues, Soul, Western Swing, Rockabilly, Honky Tonk, Blues, Boogie Woogie, and whatever else seems like a good idea. The party starts at 10:30 AM PDT / 1:30 EDT, or about an hour and a half from when I post this.

It's one for the money, two for the show, three to get ready... oh, sorry, not playing "Blue Suede Shoes" today. But I would like to start the show with a "Go, cat, go!", so I will.

In other words, we're rolling.
