has realized you don't hear any of the good stuff on the radio.

You used to, back in the 50s and 60s after 2 AM on AM radio bouncing all over the place. Bored DJs would play the good blues that would have offended churchgoers and gotten the stations burned down. Now it's all Clear Channel and Citadel and formulaic and corporatized and sterile.

Some good stuff makes it onto college stations. The rest can be found online.
