August 27 marked the 20th anniversary of Stevie Ray Vaughan's death in a helicopter crash. This week's show is dedicated to his memory, with a collection of his recordings; those of artists associated with him such as his brother Jimmie and the Double Trouble rhythm section of Chris Layton and Tommy Shannon; some of his major influences like Albert King, Lonnie Mack, and Otis Rush; followers like Melvin Taylor; and more Texas guitar bluesmen.

This Week in the Shack
This week marks the fifth anniversary of Katrina's landfall along the Gulf Coast, and The Shotgun Shack presents a set of Louisiana music - from New Orleans and the surrounding area - in recognition. (I've not forgotten that the Mississippi coast was just as badly damaged - my country blues show two weeks ago was probably about as close to an all-Mississippi show as I can effectively do right now.)
More than usual for my New Orleans shows, I think, this set really emphasizes the piano - whether it's in jazz, blues, R&B, or funk, the city has birthed, attracted, and nurtured a truly amazing collection of pianists.

10. Kermit Ruffins/ReBirth Brass Band - I Got a Woman (6:13)
11. The Dirty Dozen Brass Band - Ain't Nothin' But a Party (6:32)

This week's program is probably the most eclectic I've ever done. It begins with a work song Alan Lomax recorded at a Mississippi prison in the 1940s, and ends with a Tom Waits lullaby.
