Music On The Couch

Music On The Couch


Anita Kruse, Blues411 Report, Jeff Dale & NEW MUSIC JP Soars

September 15, 2014

Anita Kruse made a proposal to Carol Herron, the Director of the Arts in Medicine Program, in December of 2004, and they began the process of creating a unique experience for the children being treated at Texas Children's Cancer and Hematology Centers and their siblings.

Purple Songs Can Fly was founded, and I began working with the first child on March 21, 2006. The children’s songs are copied on purple CDs and flown by participating passengers, pilots and astronauts to places on earth and into space. 

Grab some tissues and join me as I speak to this remarkable woman and I am hopeful, we will have at least one join us.

Chefjimi Patricola is back from the European Blues Cruise and will enthrall us with tales of Blues on the open seas and more on the Blues411 Report.

Jeff Dale was born and raised on the south side of Chicago and was taught how to play the blues by two itinerant blues musicians from the west side when he was 13 years old. He ended up in Southern California, recording and playing until 1988 when he disappeared.

He is back now with his band, the South Woodlawners and their new album is entitled Good Music.  I will chat with Jeff, try and find out what was going on during that 20 year absence and listen to his music.

JP Soars has sat On The Couch twice.  The first time in 2013 and then last year with Southern Hospitality. Tonight he is back to talk about his latest release Full Moon Night In Memphis, a fantastic collection of songs by a talented musician.
