Former Blues Prodigy Returns to Court

It was thirty years ago that a 17 year-old blues prodigy released the landmark album Ledbetter Heights – an album that would sell enough records to be declared platinum and, therefore, establish the career of Kenny Wayne Shepherd

This week, Kenny returns to WRCT’s Court’s in Session to announce that his 30th Anniversary Ledbetter Heights tour will include a stop at the Palace Theatre in Greensburg on April 19.  Kenny and Eric Jackson Lurie will discuss the tour, Kenny’s upcoming album, and spin tunes from Kenny’s latest release Young Fashioned Ways with blues legend Bobby Rush.  

This Thursday night — October 23 — at 8:00 p.m. – with a replay Sunday October 26 at 10:00 p.m. – right here on WRCT 88.3 FM and streaming at WRCT.org.

Remembering John Lodge of the Moody Blues

Sunday, October 12 at 10:00 p.m., tune in to WRCT for a tribute to John Lodge of The Moody Blues. John passed away on October 10, 2025.  A member of the Rock’n’Roll Hall of Fame, John was actively recording music and touring at the time of his passing.

During Sunday’s Court’s in Session, your Rockin’ Attorney, Eric Jackson Lurie, will replay excerpts from two Court’s in Session programs from 2022 and 2024 during which Eric and John chatted on the air.

From “Just a Singer in a Rock ‘n’ Roll Band” to “Isn’t Life Strange” or “Nights in White Satin,”  John Lodge’s music formed the soundtrack to many boomers’ lives.  Tune in Sunday night at 10:00 p.m. on 88.3 FM or streaming at WRCT.org. to celebrate the musical heritage of John Lodge.
