Here’s a chance to see the venerable Chicago label Delmark Records 70th Anniversary Blues Revue concert filmed last October. The concert was an epic night of blues that we think you will enjoy. Three prominent acts from the Chicago label’s roster are featured, as well as revealing interviews with Julia Miller and Elbio Barilari of Delmark, Michael Frank of Earwig Music, and the performing Delmark artists.

Then, the versatile Mike Wheeler Band delivers “old school for the new century” (Blues Blast), joined by singer and Blues Music Award nominee Demetria Taylor. The evening closes with the “Global Ambassador of Chicago Blues” (Chicago Sun-Times) Dave Specter, his Dave Specter Band with the living legend and guitarist/singer Jimmy Burns.
