Episode Thirty-Three "Finis"

I met Finis Tasby while he was in the studio recording his album, "What my blues are all about". Finis Tasby has been around for a long time - starting with a band called the Thunderbirds based out of Dallas, Texas back in 1962. He has played with tons of greats including John Lee Hooker and Freddy King. In this show, he talks about his life, the loss of his daughter and his love of music.

This episode closes off with a performance video of Englishman, Steve Payne playing a tune called "Suzie Takes a Trip". Steve is joined on stage with Michael Pickett. This performance was recorded at the Southside Shuffle in Port Credit in the fall of 2004.
