We shoot pool every Sunday night in Warren. None of us are very good, but we can sure drink alot of beer!   We always have your show on. It KICKS serious ASS! Best thing on the radio hands down.  Anything you play by Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton, Allmans, SRV, or Albert King is always appreciated.

We turn it up real loud! peace n chicken grease back at ya.

Yours in blues, Ronnie.

Before I forget, where's a good place to buy blues music?

Cornel;
        A sincere "Thanks" and a tip of the hat to you.  Having the opportunity to see the "King" was fantastic!!!  It was a top five experience for me to date!!  To top things of, B. B. broke into "You are my sunshine", funny as it seems, it has extra special meaning to me!!   Hope to catch you at the Dash for Anna!!

...in '97 I fell 25' from a ladder at work and broke my neck in 6 places and totally damaged my right side of my body and try as I may, my ability to play is gone...so I still vicariously live the blues through others playings...I love all types of music but the blues just reaches me in such a deep way it helps alleviate the constant pains I feel since my accident and when I discovered the 'tangled up in blues show' I was so ecstatic, and totally blown away.

...just thanks for hearing me out, and keep the blues a comin' as it is like a tonic for all my ailments :)
To me, I'd tell people to save going out, crank the tuib shows, and save paying cover charges, getting watered down drinks...and just share the vibe of good blues with your friends.

Okay dude. This  is gonna sound creepy and weird but just bear with me. I’m driving home Sunday night, in the dark, knot in my stomach, naturally worried about finances etc. I’m listening to Tangled Up in Blues when suddenly that great DJ  (Cornel something) plays a song that I think is titled “Have A Little Faith in Me”...It was absolutely the most beautiful song and couldn’t have hit me at a better time.   Earlier that day in a bit of a panic I asked God to just let me know He was there.  And man.  It was as if God was talking to me through the radio.  (I’m sure God knows if he wants to reach me he’s gotta go through music) Anyway I just wanted to let you know that your little radio show had a very big impact on somebody else.  Thanks so much!

Dana.

Tangled Up With Norman

Each and every Sunday night you can get your Norman fix on Youngstown, Ohio's WNCD 93.3 FM the Wolf. The Tangled Up In Blues Show airs from 7:00 - 9:00 PM and features the best national & local blues music. It is hosted by ole friend, Cornel Bogdan who asked Norman to put together a little something for his theme song. With a little direction from Cornel and a little help from George the Greek on drums, it all came together. Check it out here: http://www.tangledupinblues.biz/

Hi.

I'm not a letter writer kinda guy, but I just wanted to let you know how damn good the show was Sunday night!

3 of my favorites: The Black Keys, Muddy Waters, Lucinda Williams all in one night...HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!

Although I live out here in Oklahoma, I have lots of family in Ohio--Akron, Wadsworth, East Liverpool--so I know your area well.

Keep those blues coming. I know you will. Peace & Chicken Grease back at ya.

Go Sooners!

Did you know we have a blues hall of fame out here?

 Hi Cornel.
Please enter me in the HD Radio giveaway.
I love your show. I listen every Sunday night. I don't think I've missed one in about 2 years--no kidding. The Muddy Waters tribute this past week was incredible. I'm a single Mom in Cranberry Twp, Pa. My kids really keep me busy. I spend most of my money on them, so I don't have alot left over for myself (sounds like a blues song, doesn't it?) So winning the HD radio would be a nice little present for myself.
Keep on playing the blues.
Stacie P.

I am a Maryland resident but was travelling through Ohio and Pennsylvania on July 29 and was fortunate to dial in your show.  What a treat!  As a lover of blues, I know how rare it is to find a radio show dedicated to the blues.  It is even rarer to find a show like yours that mixes classics with great new tunes.
 
One of the songs you played during that show sounded so good that I tried to write the name down while I was driving, but only wrote down "Jungle" (and your website).  If you could help me identify the name and artists for that song I would truly be in your debt!
 
Thanks.

Thanks for the Ana Popovic interview you two!
 
My buddy and I saw her that night , an YOU, at the B&O. She was as, you know, totally amazing in every way. Thank you for the interview and keep up the good work.
 
But , hey! While I am here, can I get a request in? I think the Son Seals live CD, Spontaneous Combustion has to be one of the very best live blues albums I have heard. Would you please play a cut for me and my wife, Dee, some night soon. I especially like the one song with the blues flute in it. Not many blues tunes have a flute gettin' down now do they?
 
 
Your Tangled Up Fan,
Joe (Cortland)

Hey Cornel!
Long time no see. I'm living out here in Colorado. I LOVE IT! My husband is building homes & I'm teaching pre-school.
I was browsing You Tube. I started watching Tommy Castro videos. Guess what? You're a star! I attached the link.
Where is this show from? Send me out some TC if you get a chance. We're a long way from YSU, huh? I hope to
see you this summer.

 Cornel:
Thank You guys for streaming again! There are 6 of us from NE, Ohio/Western Pa. with my division.
IRAQ SUCKS! I will never go to the beach again. I hate SAND! We've been here for over 6 months. It's gonna be awhile until we get our walking papers. We got the blues 24/7. Listening to The Wolf makes us feel closer to home. no s#$t, it really does. I never thought I would miss Champion.
 
PLEASE play some JOHN LEE HOOKER. I know you like him. (boom boom; boogie chillen; one bourbon, one scotch;
house rent boogie; mad man blues; big legs tight skirt--Gotta cook with the Hook!)
 
Anything will do. PS: I bought a bike from Andrews about 3 years ago. I can hardly wait to  get my assbon it again. Tell the guys at Andrews they are the coolest. When we get free time we all punch up on the laptop. Shitty speaker, but it does the job. Have a stogie for us. The Wolf still ROCKS! Hope you get this.

Cornel:
We really love tangled up in blues. It's become a sunday night ritual at my house.
I finally made it to the B&O for a blues event. I missed Duarte, I missed the summer bluesfest, I missed Lonnie Brooks...Shit!
But I think Guitar Shorty made up for it! What a great night of live blues. It's a perfect place to see the blues.
Shorty blew us away. That bastard can really play. He talked to me & my buddy for quite awhile.
We will definitely be back!
My wish list:
Bernard Allison
SSide Johnny & the jukes
Derek Trucks

Casy and Cornel, I play harmonica for the Blues Alliance and I really want
to thank you for playing "I Don't Have to Sing the Blues" a few weeks ago.
I was riding in the car with my 3 sons and they thought it was really cool to
hear their dad's band on the radio...If you are ever in the Alliance/Canton area on a Saturday night for some
strange reason, stop in and check us out.
Thanks, Dan Common

Just dropping you a line  to let you know listening to Tangled Up In Blues is the BEST blues Show I'VE EVER Listened to!  The music is soothing and the ads are just a crack up. Keep them blues rolling my way as you got yourself a new listener.

Dear Casey and Cornel:
 I wanted to say thank you for playing Shane Pruitt. I hope "Cried All Night Long" was well received.  I cannot say thank you enough.   Once we get the
complete CD done, I will let you know if that's okay.  We are trying to see if any record labels are interested.  If not, we will do it ourselves.  Wish us luck and thanks again. 
I hope the both of you have a Happy Holiday Season.
God Bless,

I wanted to tell you guys about some blues goin' down right here in New Castle. Every Saturday night at "The Villanova" on East Washington Street is a live blues band, usually from Pittsburgh. Bands like "Erin Burkette and the Mean Reds", Big Jake and the Phat Cats", "Andrea pearl and Black Magic", "Sweaty Betty", "Tony Janeflone" even, "Dave Iglar and the Uniters", just to name a few. I've been a happier girl ever since. My friends and I rarely miss a Saturday night there. They've started some other nights now too.
I'm a faithful listener of your show every Sunday night. Awesome show. Can't beat gettin' the blues with you guys. Thank you ~ Shannon in New Castle

I'm a 43-year-old mother of three kids whose been a devout fan of Johnny Winter since I was 11-years-old! I also love the blues because It's my release in my hectic life.

WE LOVE YA! Keep on singin' and keep on Rockin' . Randy - I LOVE YOUR CD! Keep it wild. your friends and family are golden and your fans are silver but you guys are the diamond in the rough SHINE*
