Crossroads this week – we find ourselves starting with a rare and punky classic, then really Really Free and the great Bob Seger at his best. Then our choice is a collection of “dog†related songs, interspersed with other non dog songs. Two versions of Walking the Dog, one Bluegrass style (Soul music as God intended!) and one Chicago Blues. Two Rufus Thomas songs about dogs (I think), another punk classic by Ed Banger and the Nosebleeds, some Zydeco, and finally very early and mid-point Reggae – Prince Buster followed by a bit of John Holt
