Rico and Dan Aykroyd (Elwood Blues), Chicago House Of Blues 1996
Rico Anderson and Rico Entertainment was featured August 18-19 on the Worldwide House Of Blues Radio Hour with Elwood Blues. Elwood interviewed Rico as a retrospective look at Rico's 30+ year career in the Entertainment business. We also touched on the latest news on Reverend Raven, Johnny Rawls, Lamont Cranston and more. Very cool.
THE SHOW WENT GREAT. I WILL TRY TO POST A LINK HERE TO THE SHOW, IF SPACE ALLOWS IT. THIS IS AN MP3 FILE, SO I HOPE IT DOESN'T BLOW THE SERVER UP. IT'S ABOUT 13 MINUTES LONG & 11.7 MB.
