Yesterday was a proud day for Nola Blue when John Nรฉmeth invited Benny Turner onstage to jam with The Blue Dreamers and him.
The two song jam ended with an enthusiastic standing ovation (unfortunately after the phone storage was full). What a treat for all in attendance at the Blues Society Of Central Pennsylvania Christmas Party!

Benny Turner and Clarence Spady honor the late, great Freddie King on his birthday, September 3, 2022
When Clarence Spady discovered Benny Turner in the audience at the East Pete Blues Festival, he invited him to the stage to play some Freddie King classics on Freddie's birthday (September 3).
Benny, who will be 83 years old in October, hasn't performed in public since 2020 before the pandemic, making it an extra special treat for all in attendance.
Highlights from "Hideaway" are followed by segments of "Same Old Blues".
