TALKING SPIRITS PODCAST #22 – BIG DADDY WILSON

Hello and welcome to TSP #22,

my guest today is the one of a kind American Blues story teller and musician Big Daddy Wilson.

Wilson and myself have met for the first time a very long time ago, and have been in touch ever since. I am very happy about and grateful for him accepting my invitation to join me for a chat.

We are discussing the Blues, racism and the state of nowadays society, Wilson´s path in music, being a family man and much more…
