FREDDIE KING birthday special this Friday, August 31, 6 pm
I am doing my annual Freddie King birthday tribute radio show on KNON 89.3 FM this Friday, August 31, from 6 pm to 8 pm on Texas Blues Radio. Two hours of nothing but Freddie King from throughout his career. I will be featuring some rare alternate takes, acoustic, live recordings, and a few tracks where Freddie accompanies other artists. I have been doing this special tribute show for more than 25 years around Freddie King's birthday (September 3rd). I do not have any special guests planned this year, but many of Freddie's children and his old band members still live around Dallas and Fort Worth. I never know who might drop by. Freddie was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame earlier this year. He is buried in Sparkman Hillcrest here in Dallas. http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=1240
Are you ready for Freddie??
