Blue Suede News #31 (summer 1995) has 52 pages with a slick cover. Slim Harpo is featured with a cover story called A Swamp Blues Legend, a very informative and extensive story about the Vlues singer and harmonica player who had hits like I'm A King Bee. There is also an interview with band leader, singer and songwriter Ray Condo, who toured all over the world with his eclectic mix of Rockabilly, Swing, Western Swing and Bill Haley style Rock'n'Roll. Another feature is the lengthy obituary of New Orleans Saxophone legend and Fats Domino side man Lee Allen. There is also a concert review about a show the Everly Brothers played at Six Flags in New Jersey and one about Ronnie Dawson and Eddie Angel, playing in the Bay Area.Yes, we know it says #30 on the cover, that was a typo from the printer we didn't catch.
