Route 66
Friday 6:00PM - 7:00PM
Mike "Vinyl" Humphries plays the classic jump blues, "the raucous child of country blues and swing jazz that burst onto late 1940's squalling and jiving to a hard-driving backbeat, boogie woogie piano triplets and bootin' and honkin' muscular tenor sax blasts." He has the world's most complete collection of the music and also plans on featuring Tampa's undervalued blues and R&B (the Central Avenue scene) of that era. Mike hosted "Route 66 on Atlanta's WRFG for twelve years.
