Buffy’s documentary Carry It On has been nominated for an International Emmy Award. Only one from Canada. She’s stopped touring. Reflects on her life shown on screen and surprisingly what was left out. Awards Nov 20.

Susan Tedeschi has rereleased her 25-year-old second solo album Just Won’t Burn.

She remembers that back then there were really only two female solo artists trying to break through in the blues. She and Bonnie Raitt.

The album includes original tracks, outtakes and newer versions of original songs done live by Tedeschi Trucks Band.  She was also awarded recognition from the Smithsonian Institute.

The complete interviews  with Buffy and Tom will be found on Mulligan Stew Podcast and the TerryDavidMulligan YouTube Channel
