Oh yeah, it's Mary Jane Ewing, The Rose of New Orleans, singing "Peel Me A Grape". She kicked us off with "Nature Boy" and in between the Mary Jane we heard Joe Lee play "What's New".

Something Blue is broadcast on KASU, 91.9 FM and streaming on the internet at kasu.org.

I'm Hairy Larry, host of Something Blue. For more about the show and podcasts you can hear any time go to the Something Blue website at sbblues.com.

Mary Jane Ewing was Mary Jane Rees when she attended Jonesboro High School and Arkansas State University. Then Joe Lee recorded her at Alley Records. We're listening tonight to songs from her latest CD, "I Love Being Here With You".

Here she is again doing a great song, "Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most". After that we'll hear Joe Lee sing "You Don't Learn That In School" and then he'll play one of his own compositions, "Bopping At The Forest".
