The Chess Records Hour with Marshall Chess
Sundays Noon ET
Rebroadcast Tuesdays 5 pm ET and Thursdays at midnight ET
SIRIUS Blues is proud to present the Chess Records Hour hosted by Marshall Chess. Marshall’s father Leonard Chess founded Chess Records in 1950 with his brother Phil and the two soon built one of the most storied blues labels of all time. Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Sonny Boy Williamson and many other blues legends recorded for Chess; Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley laid down the groundwork for rock 'n' roll in the Chess Studios. A teenager at the time, Marshall Chess saw it all – and now tells it all with a weekly show on SIRIUS Blues. Expect a full hour of vintage tracks from the Chess vaults and priceless stories from the heyday of the Chicago blues scene.
