Not really sure why I decided to start The Stew with “street songs” but I did.

Rock and Blues Music is filled with street references.

Streets are in everyone’s childhood..even farm kids have to go into town once and a while.

Included in this set is our feature album from Little Steven and The Disciples of Soul (Soulfire Live – 3CDs)

Tracks from Miami Steve include

10th Ave freeze out (with The Boss)

I don’t wanna go Home.   We finish the Stew with Steve’s first song he ever wrote.

So, Tom Petty kicks things off with Depot Street from his Box Set Playback
