<p class="has-text-align-center" style="text-align: center;">In this interview, I ventured across the northern border and manage to get this incredible bluesman from Canada on the WIRE with me, <a href="http://www.alfiesmith.org/">Alfie Smith</a>. I&#8217;ve been following <a href="http://www.alfiesmith.org/">Alfie Smith</a> since 2013 when <a href="https://www.facebook.com/betsy.paisley/">Betsy Lynn Paisley</a> recommended me to listen to his music. You will get insights to one of his tracks that he took from his wife&#8217;s comment to him.</p>

<p class="has-text-align-center" style="text-align: center;">In this interview, I ventured up north (virtually) to Canada and managed to get one cool cat on the WIRE with me, <a href="https://www.jamesbuddyrogers.com/">James Buddy Rogers</a>. James like myself was introduced to the Blues through our father&#8217;s. It was a pleasure and honor to catch up with James and you too can get the insides to his track &#8220;Everytime&#8221;. We both has some serious laughs about it.</p>
