State of the Blues and Other Hues

 – In the Leadoff, we discuss the MLB baseball season and the passing of blues legend B.B. King. In the Heart of the Order, we discuss the greatness of early blues music and the seeming irrelevancy of the genre today. We also have a fun discussion on the best and worst baseball uniforms, past and present. In the Bullpen Session, we carry on the blues theme and recommend music from Son House, John Hammond and David Allen Coe.
