Buddy Guy's Legends has become as celebrated as its namesake for providing Chicago with the highest quality blues talent to be seen anywhere. From the Monday jam sessions to the constant flow of world-class talent on the weekends. Legends is a required stop for soul-stirring blues and barbeque. Chicago Blues Jam brings you a slice of this legendary stage, with interviews and commentary by Buzz Kilman. Magic Slim -- Moved to Chicago in 1955 with friend and mentor, blues great Magic Sam (who nicknamed him Magic Slim). Known for his raspy passionate vocals and sizzling guitar solos, Slim and his band The Teardrops continue to play in the tradition of the classic blues greats, while continuing to innovate, and most of all, have a rocking good time. Studebaker John & The Hawks -- This Chicago native picked up the harmonica at age 7, and got hooked on the blues in his early teens because of the corned beef sandwiches on Maxwell Street. Enjoy this Chicago fixture who has developed into an accomplished guitar and harp player, as well as an excellent songwriter.
