NBTB Top 100
Originating in April 1992 as a one hour blues program on Friday nights, "Nothin' But The Blues" is now showcased for four hours from 8pm to midnight every Saturday night on Morehead State Public Radio (WMKY at 90.3FM) and online at: www.msuradio.com
The NBTB Top 100 are the blues artists and performers who have made a lasting impact and influenced the direction of "Nothin' But The Blues." Not necessarily the top one hundred blues artists of all-time, rather the performers who sparked an initial interest in a regular blues program and those who have kept the radio program going during the two-plus decades it's been on the air.
Tune-in Saturday nights from 8pm to midnight to hear your favorite blues artists, new performers or legends of blues for some you might add to your own top 100 list.
