This week, I am joined by modern blues legend Kenny Wayne Shepherd, for an in-depth conversation that dives into the music and stories behind his most iconic songs. We explore highlights from his extensive discography, including several standout tracks from his latest album, Dirt On My Diamonds, Vol. 1. Kenny reflects on his experience performing on the Experience Hendrix Tour, and shares the story behind his collaboration with Les Claypool on a powerful cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Oh Well.”We also dig into the unique vocal dynamic between Kenny and his longtime co-lead singer Noah Hunt, and what it’s like performing with members of Stevie Ray Vaughan’s legendary backing band, Double Trouble—Chris Layton, Reese Wynans, and Tommy Shannon. Of course, we talk about the lasting impact of his massive hit “Blue On Black,” including its reimagined version featuring Five Finger Death Punch, Brantley Gilbert, and Queen’s Brian May.Head over to MyWeeklyMixtape.com to stream every song featured in this episode, browse the full archive of curated playlists, check out exclusive artist interviews, and discover even more music content designed for fans of all genres! FOR MORE ON MY WEEKLY MIXTAPEWebsite: http://www.myweeklymixtape.comPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/myweeklymixtapeFacebook: http://www.facebook.com/myweeklymixtapeX: https://x.com/myweeklymixtapeInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/myweeklymixtapeThreads: https://www.threads.net/@myweeklymixtape Blusky: https://bsky.app/profile/myweeklymixtape.bsky.social TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@myweeklymixtapeTheme music is "Unveiled" by The 4th.
