Home of the Blues Home of the Blues is a show on FreshAir.org.uk, Edinburgh University's student radio. Each week Tim B-G plays the best of his blues collection.

You'll hear original and contemporary blues in all of its different forms. LIVE BROADCAST: 22:00-23:00, every Thursday. Live: www.freshair.org.uk
Listen again: http://www.mixcloud.com/HomeoftheBlues/

Intelligent, wise people have said things like this:

"If your not listening to Home of the Blues right now on www.freshair.org.uk [or mixcloud.com] then you're a fool,...it is f****** superb!"

"I h

ate radio, but this is unbelievable." "Absolutely love this show." The kind people at FreshAir.org.uk gave me an award at their Christmas curry and awards, and nominated me for three others:

Best Specialist Show (Joint Winner)

Nominations (I was definitely out of my depth for these ones):
Best Feature, I Got The Same Old Blues
Best Male Presenter
Best Show

So that's pretty nice and great. Get in touch here or through: [email protected]

Two hours until the end folks, two hours until the end

In order to highlight our own mortality and the finite nature of everything we hold dear to our essentially doomed hearts Home of the Blues is coming to an end TONIGHT. After 3 wonderful series at 10pm tonight on freshair.org.uk the show will come to a close. So the rules are being thrown out and Tim is going to play whatever the hell he likes from within the whiskey scented barrel of the blues. Sending such a vigorous show to its final sleep is no easy job, so number one fan Innes MacLeod will be coming into the studio to help ease its passing.
If a crowd were to gather in the pleasance courtyard at 11pm with flowers and candles and someone to do a slow clap whilst tears roll down the cheeks of onlookers that would perfectly acceptable.
Last show! Tonight! Freshair.org.uk! 10pm! Home of the Blues!

“What's the connection between blues, country and bluegrass music?"
"I don't know.”
"Why you damn fool! There are many connections between them, but the most important one is that they'll all be featured on that wonderful radio program Home of the Blues tomorrow at 10pm.”
“Oh, how splendid, a Home of the Blues special!”
“Splendid indeed young one, splendid indeed. But, wait, there’s more to tell.”
“Oh tell, tell, do tell.”
“Well young one, the show will feature three tracks from The Kentucky Cow Tippers' new album.”
“Oh joy of joys. I heard they are the rising bluegrass stars of Newcastle.”
“They are indeed young one, they are indeed. Don’t forget to tune in young one.”
“Oh I won’t, there’s no way I’d miss that, not a chance.”
“Good! For if you do, you know what will happen.”
“Oh I’ll be good, I promise, I don’t want you to take another finger, I promise, I promise.”
“Well ok then, run along now young one, and don't forget the HOME OF THE BLUES, 1OPM THURSDAY, FRESHAIR.ORG.UK.”
