Summer has shown its beautiful face at long last here in Chicago and this week's playlist is the first of many to be made in the spirit of barbeques, days at the beach, driving with the windows down and breaking the sandals out of the back of the closet. Some artists may be a familiar site to regular readers, Michael Bellar/The As-Is Ensemble was the Featured Artist back on August 13th, and Luke Winslow-King has what's been the most popular Live on Some Kind of Jam album to date. Others such as the absolutely spectacular jazz guitarist Grant Green and blues God John Lee Hooker are making much overdue first appearances on the podcast. All of these artists, in one way or another, remind me of summer and all the fine times that come with it.
There are a few requests on the back burner right now that I wasn't able to get to this week, but they'll be in the next episode. As per usual, if you have any requests feel free to send em along on Facebook or Twitter.
