Fat Possum Records Evolves with the Blues

Fat Possum Records, based in Oxford, Miss., is an independent label founded as a platform for gritty bluesmakers R.L. Burnside and Junior Kimbrough. But as the label's artists have grown old and some have died, NPR's Jesse Baker reports on a shift to a
new generation of blues-oriented alternative rock. (from NPR.org)
