    Charlie Musselwhite, The Foundations' Alan Warner and Cornelius Brothers & Sister Rose


Hi, this is Sandy, thanks for joining me for this week’s episode. I’m so excited to be able to introduce you to three terrific musical guests.
Grammy Award-winning music legend CHARLIE MUSSELWHITE  is renowned worldwide as a master harmonica player, a seasoned, truth-telling vocalist and an original songwriter rooted deep in the blues tradition. He’s won 14 Blues Music Awards, been nominated for six Grammys, and received multiple Lifetime Achievement Awards.  With a new album out now, I caught up with Charlie in Clarksdale Mississippi and discovered a humble, down to earth and extremely talented gentleman.
They were a family band from Florida; siblings Carter, Eddie, Rose and Billie Jo Cornelius and were the toast of the town in 1972 with a song that climbed the charts right around the world. The CORNELIUS BROTHERS AND SISTER ROSE  imploded though after they tasted success. Rose shares their story with us this week.
Who could forget British band, THE FOUNDATIONS? Their smash hit, ‘Build Me Up Buttercup’ took the world by storm and remains a firm favourite for many people the world over.  The band started out in the late 60’s as a 12-piece group and made their mark as one of the first multi racial acts to perform in London. Founding member ALAN WARNER tells us all about the band’s incredible journey.
