250 - The ESP's Heard Them First (or Songs We Taught His Name Is Alive)





No secret that His Name Is Alive is one of my all time favorite groups.  In all their incarnations, they always have something interesting to provide.  This mix highlights the original songs covered in The ESP's 1920's bluesHNIA Dreem Up, and HNIA Time Stereo releases mostly.  It was a lot of work and a lot of fun tracking down all these songs.
