John McDonald

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. One of the highlights of my musical career was at the “Bloomington Blues Festival” when I opened for Muddy Waters and his band. I think I did OK because when I got off stage, they invited me to join them in their pre-show “shot of gin”. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? B.B.

Also anything by Guy Clark and John Prime Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “I Remember Everything” I recorded it the day after John Prime died- I guess as a kind of personal tribute and "thank you" for the great songs he gave us.
