Fusing together...two hosts on Ahmet's House tonight...focus on early Rock

We focus in on a very particular topic tonight...and bring in a special guest to do it. Dave Tomlinson, host of WBKM's "Drinking Gourd" blues show will join me in the studio tonight to talk about one of our mutual favorites: Big Joe Turner, and his influence on the early days of rock and roll...and beyond. And we respectfully dedicate tonight's show to the late great Jack Bruce...thank you Jack, for your part in this fine history...and the very definition of the power trio!
