It’s crazy to think that this is the 400th Talkin’ Blues podcast episode. That close to 400 people (some people appeared more than once) over the past 8 years or so, were willing to chat with me is pretty unbelievable - not to mention all the people who actually took the time to listen to these interviews around the world.

They estimate that there are over 5 million podcasts available right now and 44% of all podcasts don’t get past the 3rd episode. I could have stopped after three episodes but I really love the interview process - especially when I get to interview the people I’ve had the privilege to interview over the years. I thank each and every one of you who has been involved with this series - It’s a collection of interviews that I’m very proud of…and frankly, totally blown away by.

This week on Talkin’ Blues, a conversation with drummer Chris Layton (Stevie Ray Vaughan, Arc Angels, Storyville, Kenny Wayne Shepherd).

Special thanks to Chris Layton, Miki Mulvehill and Gary Vaughan for this very special episode and thanks to everyone who has taken the time to listen to any of this podcast series over the years.
