His performances draw from a rich tradition of country blues, as well as his own contemporary songs infused with wit and a large dose of humour.</p><p>Originally from Detroit, Davis grew up listening to a prolific mix of rhythm and blues. The music of Jimmy Reed, Ike and Tina Turner, Chuck Berry and Fats Domino was in the air. He later moved to California with his family, and then in 1968 left for Canada.</p><p> While living in Rochdale College, Toronto’s mecca for the subculture of the late 1960’s, he immersed himself in the study of Delta Blues, especially the music of Robert Johnson. Toronto’s music scene in the early 1970’s was the perfect place for Davis to cut his teeth as a journeyman, having the opportunity to see and play with many legendary performers. Bukka White, Johnny Shines, Sunnyland Slim, Snooky Pryor, Hubert Sumlin, and John Hammond were encouraging supporters.</p><p> Davis hit the road with the Rhythm Rockets, The Knights of The Mystic Sea, and David Wilcox’s first band, eventually forming his own trio.</p><p> Over the years he has had the priviledge of opening for Willie Dixon, John Lee Hooker, Albert King, John Hammond, Albert Collins, and Eric Bibb. A highlight of his career was backing the phenomenal Dr.John. Morgan has shared the stage with Colin Linden, who also produced his second album, shared the stage with James Cotton, Hubert Sumlin, Sunnyland Slim, Snooky Pryor, James Harmon, Gene Taylor, Dutch Mason, Gene Taylor and many other great blues artist over the years.</p><p><span style="color: #ffd966;">posted by poldo</span></p>Chase The Blueshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09500684769522121420noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246873116744973676.post-2485811064999026112020-12-07T18:37:00.000+09:002020-12-07T18:37:08.817+09:00Al Copley - Acoustic 88<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5zVC4waEuPrNgOg2UwvGtDV2YfG59kdKcGM-EmOeSNNwdzDtR89bMQqscK9Tnb1kxaUgH0GHbyNaXBPT_zzm6M1FVB9xHiDwJUZlFTbjjHf4GYwWdp4sZLNNNR1AsGgX7k5F2gwG22AU/s400/Al+Copley+-+Acoustic+88+-+Front+%2526+Back.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="196" data-original-width="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5zVC4waEuPrNgOg2UwvGtDV2YfG59kdKcGM-EmOeSNNwdzDtR89bMQqscK9Tnb1kxaUgH0GHbyNaXBPT_zzm6M1FVB9xHiDwJUZlFTbjjHf4GYwWdp4sZLNNNR1AsGgX7k5F2gwG22AU/s320/Al+Copley+-+Acoustic+88+-+Front+%2526+Back.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>Styles : Piano Blues, Boogie Woogie<p></p><p>Released : 1988</p><p>Label : Suffering Egos Records<br /></p><p><br /></p><p>01 - Elegie</p><p>02 - Blugano</p><p>03 - Out West Boogie / Hey Good Lookin'</p><p>04 - Snowy North Blues (original recording)</p><p>05 - You Are My Sunshine</p><p>06 - My Bonnie Rocks</p><p>07 - Nobody Knows You (When You're Down and Out)</p><p>08 - Cactus Jump (original recording)</p><p>09 - I've Found a New Baby</p><p>10 - Boudry Bounds</p><p>11 - l'Etoile du Nord</p><p>12 - The Glass Boogie (original recording)</p><p><br /></p><p>Al Copley (born Almon LeGrande Copley, 1952, Buffalo, New York, United States) is an American blues pianist and singer, plus arranger and co-founder of Roomful of Blues.

It was the heyday of Blues and Boogie Woogie and the electric guitar had still to be invented. To make themselves heard in the streets, guitar players had to use very loud imstru-merits. </p><p> They typically used resonator guitars made of brass or big, low-tuned 12 string instruments. A washboard and a harmonica could be found in almost every household to make a washboard band complete. This CD takes on this tradition with some historical instruments and a lot of new ideas. </p><p>CD ripped & provided by poldo</p><p><br /></p>Chase The Blueshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09500684769522121420noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246873116744973676.post-40522590249006494882020-10-24T15:35:00.000+09:002020-10-24T15:35:18.482+09:00Robert Kimbrough Sr. Blues Connection - Live From The Hut<p>Styles : Delta Blues , Hill Contry Blues</p><p>Released :2016</p><p>Label : Go Ape Records</p><p><br /></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEaLNFEHz7tAaXVoy768oBTeOGZ5r6DFwOnDPt56jGue6Js3Xw0n3tGnWku8Iv_QRgurSTNW1e2GMEhvkYPQgTM43IQSitcMw7g0r5FR3X9LfwT4-SDZoHeaXr26Hloamwpdog1zIQCso/s200/Robert+Kimbrough+Sr.+Blues+Connection+-+Live+From+The+Hut+-+cover.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="167" data-original-width="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEaLNFEHz7tAaXVoy768oBTeOGZ5r6DFwOnDPt56jGue6Js3Xw0n3tGnWku8Iv_QRgurSTNW1e2GMEhvkYPQgTM43IQSitcMw7g0r5FR3X9LfwT4-SDZoHeaXr26Hloamwpdog1zIQCso/s0/Robert+Kimbrough+Sr.+Blues+Connection+-+Live+From+The+Hut+-+cover.jpg" /></a></div>01 - Robert Kimbrough Sr. Blues Connection - Po' Black Man<p></p><p>02 - Robert Kimbrough Sr. Blues Connection - Jumper On The Line</p><p>03 - Robert Kimbrough Sr. Blues Connection - Dust My Broom</p><p>04 - Robert Kimbrough Sr. Blues Connection - That's Alright With Me</p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPdkzhjsrqS6u1PxzH1j5RJ7s3LNd8sjbVFuF8bYZl4fnILqmSpGaX42wDQW3Bqf3cAw0QRf3hAK02-TsOtMhMZ3hwnGGe_a7OSOuD9BMLEeVa-Amd17__2oXOF85rzj_S4oBi0-BK6Z4/s200/Robert+Kimbrough+Sr.+Blues+Connection+-+Live+From+The+Hut+-+cover1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="164" data-original-width="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPdkzhjsrqS6u1PxzH1j5RJ7s3LNd8sjbVFuF8bYZl4fnILqmSpGaX42wDQW3Bqf3cAw0QRf3hAK02-TsOtMhMZ3hwnGGe_a7OSOuD9BMLEeVa-Amd17__2oXOF85rzj_S4oBi0-BK6Z4/s0/Robert+Kimbrough+Sr.+Blues+Connection+-+Live+From+The+Hut+-+cover1.jpg" /></a></div>05 - Robert Kimbrough Sr. Blues Connection - Don't Leave Me<p></p><p>06 - Robert Kimbrough Sr. Blues Connection - Poor Boy<br /></p><p>07 - Robert Kimbrough Sr. Blues Connection - You Better Run</p><p>08 - Robert Kimbrough Sr. Blues Connection - Meet Me In The City</p><p>09 - Robert Kimbrough Sr. Blues Connection - Have Mercy On Me</p><p>10 - Robert Kimbrough Sr. Blues Connection - All Night Long</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p> Robert Kimbrough, Sr. Has been a busy man lately. Since last year, the son of the late Junior Kimbrough has released two solo albums (Willey Woot and What I’m Gon’ Do? Where I’m Gon’ Go From Here?) And in May 2017 debuted his Kimbrough Cotton Patch Blues Festival in Holly Springs. The primary location for the festival was the Hut, a cinder block building that has served as an area juke joint in recent years. Kimbrough’s latest album, Live from the Hut, captures a night of live music at this venue, offering a glimpse of the modern north Mississippi blues scene.</p><p> Backed by his BluesConnection band— guitarist James “G-Cutter” Hall, bassist and drummer Artumus LeSueur and drummer Jason Wilburn—Kimbrough is also joined by David, Kinney and Cameron Kimbrough, along with Duwayne Burnside, Joyce Shewolfe Jones and guitarist Will Bart. Throughout the evening, they mix originals in with Junior Kimbrough covers (including a gnarly version of You Better Run, splattered with wicked sounding guitar licks). The funky That’s Alright with Me and slinky, insistent Don’t Leave Me, both by David Kimbrough, are perfect for the dance floor. Robert Kimbrough’s Poor Boy, an extended, moody jam, is haunting. With vocals eerily evocative of his father, Burnside unleashes furious, Hendrix-esque fretwork on R.L.’s Jumper on the Line, and offers a laid-back take of Robert Johnson’s Dust My Broom as well.</p><p> The recording unfortunately suffers from a compressed, dull sound quality that obscures the vocals at times; this may be a result of the acoustics inside this particular space. Yet the energy and prowess of these performers can’t be denied.

It was Mardi Gras, but Como, MS Blues legend RL Boyce was in the Circle Bar and with the support of Paul Artigues and Todd Mathews, on loan from the Thunder Band, he settled in and grooved an incredible set of down-home, hypnotic hill country blues. This is unfiltered RL BOYCE at his very best. No guest stars. No hot leads. No slide guitar. ALL BOOGIE.</a></span></p><p><br /></p><p>Bio :</p><p>R. L.

By the time John Cephas died at age 78 in 2009, Cephas & Wiggins were the world’s most famous blues duo, approaching the almost mythical stature of Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee. Although to casual observers, Cephas and Wiggins may have been “a couple of old blues guys,” there was actually a generation between their ages, and Wiggins has some good life expectancy remaining. The question has been about musical expectancy. A quickly recorded album with Corey Harris late in 2009 at XM Radio has had virtually no distribution. Wiggins appeared on an album by Blackwater Mojo in 2012, and cut a single with George Kilby, Jr., but should put Phil Wiggins firmly back on the map.</p><p><br /></p><p>Wiggins fronts a band called The Chesapeake Sheiks, a name which he tells us in the album’s unfortunately parsimonious liner notes, is drawn from The Mississippi Sheiks, a very successful band that played all sorts of roots music and its branches in the 1930s. No Fools No Fun was recorded at a performance for a clearly appreciative audience in Laurel MD (the actual date of the show is not listed). Most of the material comes from 78-rpm-era songs from that general musical area where blues, jazz, swing, and old-timey music intersect. The band includes some solid players, especially violinist Marcus Moore.</p><p><br /></p><p>Most of the tracks are entertaining and upbeat songs, such as “Lulu’s Back In Town,” from the 1935 film Broadway Gondolier, which was later made popular by Fats Waller, and Earl Hines’ “Rosetta” which was distinctively covered by Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys in 1938, and many others since, on which Marcus Moore deftly enhances Wiggins’ vocal with his violin. The opening track “Struttin’ With Some Barbecue” (a transformation of a piece recorded by Louis Armstrong and written by his wife Lil Hardin Arnstrong) offers solid solos from all the band members except bassist Eric Shrameck, including some engaging interplay between harmonica and violin. (It sounds as if someone’s playing castanets, or some small percussion intrument, on this track, though it isn’t listed in the credits.)</p><p><br /></p><p>“Roberta” comes from the Cephas & Wiggins repertoire, the band joining Wiggins in singing a spirited rendition of the song, one of the duo’s more popular tunes. Good solos abound in the band’s treatment of Duke Ellington’s somewhat sardonic “Do Nothin’ Till You Hear From Me,” and the audience is clearly pleased with “Let The Mermaids Flirt With Me” which comes from Mississippi John Hurt. “Don’t Let The Sun Catch You Crying” is more somber than most of the other songs, and Wiggins’ voice really isn’t quite up to the challenge of presenting the deep sadness of the song, though he counters by dropping in a little humor, joking about his French pronunciation of the word “pavement” while Moore’s violin is truly aching in keeping with the song’s mood.</p><p><br /></p><p>The title track (apparently written by Wiggins – – there are no songwriting credits with the album) offers a funny tale of wild and sometimes violent parties in Wiggins’ home neighborhood in Washington DC. As in other party songs (including classics like “Wang Dang Doodle”) some crazy characters do some outlandish things, and Wiggins has fun describing it. “Iffy Effy” is also apparently a Wiggins song, poking fun at a gold-digging woman who aspires to higher society.</p><p><br /></p><p>The album includes two less commonly covered songs from the 1940s from Willie Dixon’e Big Three Trio, “Don’t Let The Music Die,” a song celebrating the kind of music that this album features, and “Tell That Woman,” which offers Moore the chance to shine – – which he does. “Frim Fram Sauce,” originally recorded by Nat King Cole, is one of those funny songs with a deeper underside. The customer ordering a nonexistent “frim fram sauce with oys and fay with shofiefa on the side” is really trying to wangle a free glass of water at the restaurant.</p><p><br /></p><p>The album ends on a dark note with Louis Armstrong’s “Do You Call That A Buddy” a song about a friend trying to steal his friend’s girlfriend. Armstrong’s version isn’t humorous, but the way Wiggins sings this, and his use of “defenestrate my buddy” in place of Armstrong’s “kill my buddy” lightens the feeling in the song. (Wiggins also “exsanguinates,” “decapitates,” and “eviscerates” him, attacking him with vocabulary, where Armstrong in his last verse just “parts” with him). As with “Don’t Let The Sun Catch You Crying,” Wiggins seems, at least on this song, more comfortable defusing the sadness and anger with humor.</p><p><br /></p><p>No Fools No Fun is actually quite a lot of fun, with a great band, and an excellent selection of old and old-styled songs. Phil Wiggins’ harmonica playing is superb, and his approach to the music is highly entertaining. The album will undoubtedly help Wiggins enhance his profile as he finds his way in the music world post Cephas-Wiggins.</p><div>Ripped and provided by <b>sussex</b></div>Chase The Blueshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09500684769522121420noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246873116744973676.post-48048233631172794872015-02-03T19:22:00.000+09:002015-02-03T19:22:48.772+09:00Dave Ray - Legacy (Rare & Unreleased 1962-2002) (3 CDs)<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRVNzpbKxZ18McfNCqShtwHq9E2mTYEw5M2b0HIRFMBqCtLT8aIn3ll3jxSeuG3d0xJ9A7gTqcAdIj8c9HGjYAH-dZIkbYmyjd7Mbp4r0z4sTZ7Lh2OPmk1SNNP6fb29lbqoEfSqWrd3U/s1600/Dave+Ray+-+Legacy+-+Cover1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRVNzpbKxZ18McfNCqShtwHq9E2mTYEw5M2b0HIRFMBqCtLT8aIn3ll3jxSeuG3d0xJ9A7gTqcAdIj8c9HGjYAH-dZIkbYmyjd7Mbp4r0z4sTZ7Lh2OPmk1SNNP6fb29lbqoEfSqWrd3U/s1600/Dave+Ray+-+Legacy+-+Cover1.jpg" height="154" width="200" /></a>Styles ; Country Blues, Folk Blues<br />

Johnny died in 1992 leaving behind a memorable musical legacy and many friends around the world. This previously unissued concert from 1970 is part of that legacy.<br />
It's the earliest live recording of Shines and finds him in peak from shouting the blues as only he could and playing stellar guitar. His performances are powerful and commanding with forceful vocals and his melodic bottleneck playing. He does half of dozen Robert Johnson songs but these are totally original interpretations by Johnny and, just as his 1952 recording of 'Rambling' did, clearly showed he was the best interpreter of Johnson's music.<br />

Warner Williams and Jay Summerour have been playing music together under the name of Little Bit A Blues for nearly 30 years. During their tenure together, they have recorded several albums, including one under the Smithsonian Folkways label. Eric Selby joined up with Warner and Jay several years ago, completing the current trio heard on this new and exciting release. Little Bit A Blues have played concert venues and blues festivals across the country?too many to name.<br />
<br />
Icons in the genre of piedmont-style, acoustic blues, Little Bit A Blues has become a fan favorite nationwide. Often shying away from the media spotlight, they have continued their musical journey together while gaining a large and loyal following. Individually and as a group, they have received numerous awards and recognitions in honor of their commitment to delivering real-deal, acoustic blues. Just in 2012 alone, Eric Selby was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame, Jay Summerour received a WAMMIE Lifetime Achievement Award and 83-year-old Warner Williams was inducted by the National Endowment of the Arts as a Lifetime Heritage Fellow for his contribution to American music.<br />
<br />
From the coaxing of Bill Wax of B.B. King’s Bluesville, Little Bit A Blues got together and completed a live recording at SiriusXM Studios in the Fall of 2012. This amazing recording session has become the latest release from Soul Stew Records, 'The Best of Little Bit a Blues Live B.B. King's'.<br />
<br />
This new release was recorded in a similar manner to how they perform their concerts: live, no musical edits and no overdubs. Whether it’s the beat-tapping of Warner’s boot or a much needed cough in between verses to belt out the blues, on this CD, you hear it all in its raw and honest form. Just like the real-deal acoustic blues they deliver.Chase The Blueshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09500684769522121420noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246873116744973676.post-89662792844986020622014-08-31T07:39:00.000+09:002014-08-31T07:39:27.637+09:00Patricia Wilder - Lay Down Daddy<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicw4GqvREt5MP4VWrJVMBWJ2Pgc2i1cPeBVeN1ob3_cuZWx1XxLjK27CnDdP_98SEjdUkb5mtARDqwD5hpRTnBDXGbDmHmEW5sgon9176GD2HslHyoe_C19QWrO0lgXBtEWGBpK5h9qqc/s1600/Patricia+Wilder+-+Lay+Down+Daddy+-+Front.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicw4GqvREt5MP4VWrJVMBWJ2Pgc2i1cPeBVeN1ob3_cuZWx1XxLjK27CnDdP_98SEjdUkb5mtARDqwD5hpRTnBDXGbDmHmEW5sgon9176GD2HslHyoe_C19QWrO0lgXBtEWGBpK5h9qqc/s1600/Patricia+Wilder+-+Lay+Down+Daddy+-+Front.jpg" height="193" width="200" /></a>Styles : Blues-Rock, Funky, Soul Blues<br />

Over the last two decades he has partnered with harmonica player and percussionist Jay Summerour. They have established themselves as master musicians equally at home on the festival circuit or at a friend’s fish fry.<br />
<br />
Drawing on an endless repertory of blues, county, jazz, pop, gospel, rock, and even old-time classics, Williams imprints each piece with his own style, the mark of a true songster. Over the course of his life he’s picked up lots of songs and as long as it’s good music, he doesn’t discriminate between genres. He grew up in a profoundly musical family, performing as a youngster at home, church, and on the streets. When he was old enough, he played in jooks and taverns, at times working with various bands. But for the most part, music has been a pleasure and a hobby secondary to a day job and raising his own musical family. Recently retired from the Montgomery County Park and Planning Commission, he can now dedicate more time to playing and expanding his musical reputation.<br />
<br />
Three generations of family-based music provide context for his superb musicianship. His skills and musical choices provide a unique blend of rural and urban and black and white traditions. He admits a preference for older songs that date back as far as the country breakdown<br />
his father once played, but most stem from blues, jazz, country, pop, and rhythm and blues of the late 1940’s and 1950’s. A musician’s musician, his playing and singing appear so effortless that it takes a moment or two to realize just how good he is. With his outsized cowboy hat, boots, jeans and shades, he’s hard to miss; and when he starts to play, whether it’s Blind Boy Fuller, Fats Waller, or Fats Domino, he’s impossible to ignore. Together with Jay Summerour, they are outstanding examples of the East Coast guitar/harmonica duet tradition, and their music reminds us that there are more blues highways than the Delta’s 61 or 49.Chase The Blueshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09500684769522121420noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246873116744973676.post-8338489105310916712014-06-17T21:06:00.000+09:002014-06-17T21:06:48.933+09:00George Mcconkey - Tin & Bone<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpqNO8l8SHyRj1hVj-Teoola_cslY8ulHoDRWtg_ptaT6mGkAKeyf23zjUbYfyhNuVJv9wogsVVCDPBUrQTf75NBiz3feGXgYnrpASMkQovS64lFFmteC5_oo9_QslygQ_6Fg75Zvc6RE/s1600/George+Mcconkey+-+Tin+&+Bone+-+Front.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpqNO8l8SHyRj1hVj-Teoola_cslY8ulHoDRWtg_ptaT6mGkAKeyf23zjUbYfyhNuVJv9wogsVVCDPBUrQTf75NBiz3feGXgYnrpASMkQovS64lFFmteC5_oo9_QslygQ_6Fg75Zvc6RE/s1600/George+Mcconkey+-+Tin+&+Bone+-+Front.jpg" height="177" width="200" /></a>lStyles : Acoustic Blues, Harmonica Blues<br />

"Philadelphia" Jerry Ricks has taken the art of blues guitar to new levels with his two groundbreaking releases for the Rooster Blues label. Raised in the City of Brotherly Love, Ricks has been splitting his time between Philadelphia and parts north during summer and Mississippi during the winter in recent years. Ricks got his master's degree in acoustic blues by hanging out with the likes of Mississippi John Hurt, Skip James, and other 1960s blues revival folk-blues musicians when they came to coffeehouses and small bars in Philadelphia. These were artists who were both great names and great personalities: Son House, Jesse Fuller, Libba Cotten, Lightnin' Hopkins, Mance Lipscomb, and others who were around for the 1960s folk and blues revival. In his capacity as booking manager for the Second Fret Coffee House in Philadelphia from 1960 to 1966, he had the chance to learn and practice "hangout-ology" with all the above-mentioned bluesmen and Cotten and other blueswomen.<br />

Al Cook is the dean of Austrian blues singer/guitarists. He figured it all out at the start over fifty years ago, learning from the best of the American artists. A lot of people marvel that someone from Central Europe with English as a second language can get such an authentic sound, but Al Cook proves it can be done. I’m sure it took some hard work on top of his innate talent, but he did it. For me the most amazing thing is that he can write songs that have the ring of old blues from the 1920s and 1930s. The lyrics, melodies, and guitar parts are all true to the idiom. Mississippi 1930 has a fine selection of Al Cook’s original songs, woven together by his charming narrative. The listeners become time-travelers back to the environment of Papa Charley Patton, Son House and their buddies.~ Prof. David Evans, University Of Mississippi<br />

<br />
On the same wavelength as the 2001 multi-award-winning monographic Revenant boxed set dedicated to Charlie Patton, Dust-to-Digital releases this luxury compilation including five CDs of gospel or gospel-related music and one of sermons. From the very packaging we are faced with a high-quality and carefully manufactured product, which is packed in raw cotton and housed in a cedar box, with a profusely illustrated 200-page booklet including the transcription of each song, preceded by exhaustive liner <br />
notes compiled by the most famous gospel scholars and glossed by verses drawn from the Bible.<br />
<br />
The essays, which are the result of extensive research, are written in understandable and concise English. Art direction and mastering are superb. The photos alone are worth the money for the boxed set and, compared to previous reissues, the excellent sound restoration helps to better understand lyrics. The quality of the music on offer is not inferior: the 135 songs, recorded between 1902 and 1960, are veritable gospel masterpieces or, in any case, black or white compositions dealing with sacred material.<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3P5I4a2t6rJygmOQJf9CRA-hZVfTdQaQ4LgjXiU00RiJh5HqUDqxX0s0cndgY-rqKjC-K6pvmZByZU_RRWL7lT8AyeSrgzPLomXuQE2FilN8G0XIfSvBuVYAQaedWNxpRjN0upxtXgU8/s1600/book+cover.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3P5I4a2t6rJygmOQJf9CRA-hZVfTdQaQ4LgjXiU00RiJh5HqUDqxX0s0cndgY-rqKjC-K6pvmZByZU_RRWL7lT8AyeSrgzPLomXuQE2FilN8G0XIfSvBuVYAQaedWNxpRjN0upxtXgU8/s1600/book+cover.JPG" height="127" width="200" /></a><br />
The range is broad: from major artists usually associated with the blues, such as Skip<br />
James, Blind Willie McTell and Bukka White, to well-known (Blind Willie Johnson, Rev. Gary Davis) or minor (Sister Cally<br />
Fancy, Sister O. M. Terrell) guitar evangelists, they all belong to the band. Supporting beams of black vocal music, such as the Golden Gate Jubilee Quartet and the Trumpeteers, challenge the voice of mighty singers, such as Mahalia Jackson and Sister Rosetta Tharpe. Thomas A. Dorsey, the putative father of Gospel, appears beside Arizona Dranes, the unknown stepmother of barrelhouse piano, as well as the milestone of African-American sacred music. Difficult to digest, yet fascinating from both the historical and cultural viewpoints, are the choirs of the so-called sacred harp singers, which go as far back as the eighteenth century.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLWqmt34r2p9ZnQ09Ii32E6jH8iXBtb6DWB_3cEhrrB5qCxzlEcRMNOkRp9QV8fzswNHbqd_ETb2XyT62WUPjcE7Njwx_IcASj1cx4JhVf7XRy5gT6elIJQ1sTcOSATN88_1gGU5265Sc/s1600/CD-4-22.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLWqmt34r2p9ZnQ09Ii32E6jH8iXBtb6DWB_3cEhrrB5qCxzlEcRMNOkRp9QV8fzswNHbqd_ETb2XyT62WUPjcE7Njwx_IcASj1cx4JhVf7XRy5gT6elIJQ1sTcOSATN88_1gGU5265Sc/s1600/CD-4-22.jpg" height="155" width="200" /></a> ll this is seasoned with the best of white production, mainly country in origin, which features historical names, such as Uncle Dave Macon, The Carter Family and Hank Williams.<br />
<br />
Not yet satisfied?<br />
Here is the sixth compact disc, which contains the tracks of 25 sermons, as well as their transcriptions and comments made by the well-known musicologist David Evans, who also won a Grammy for the liner notes to the Patton box set. This disc has the inestimable quality of filling a gap in that it constitutes one of the rare opportunities to listen to, and at the same time read, lively sermons improvised by black preachers directly from the pulpit and dealing with 1920s and 1930s topical subjects.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUTRa_JaTQ5mNWshkJO9lixDrCTQksHZMfHmGV4ixi6CSAiwsz5Mca9tBhwlCQC2RJcHkYDwkc2fNz8cFHN26xp2tRhVyTeL2K3GoJZiLL3_BjlV5pyoouNns67xVx0k7id-989kpcIy0/s1600/Sacred+Harp+School+1915.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUTRa_JaTQ5mNWshkJO9lixDrCTQksHZMfHmGV4ixi6CSAiwsz5Mca9tBhwlCQC2RJcHkYDwkc2fNz8cFHN26xp2tRhVyTeL2K3GoJZiLL3_BjlV5pyoouNns67xVx0k7id-989kpcIy0/s1600/Sacred+Harp+School+1915.jpg" height="127" width="200" /></a> Among the other reverends, we can appreciate the very popular J. M. Gates who prepares the soul of the congregation for Christmas, the stormy A. W. Nix who warns his congregation not to board the train of sin, the hoarse J. C. Burnett who reminds his disciples not to fall into the trap of gambling, the resolute F. W. McGee who tells the Biblical episode of Jonah in the belly of the whale. There is much more sense of music in these mainly spoken pre-war recordings than in most modern gospel music.<br />
<br />
There are few (if any) compilations of sacred music that can bear comparison with this as for the ratio of quality and price, broadness of music being equal.<br />

There is also a guest harmonica on four of the songs that leads you straight into the blues. But the guitar style is NOT a bottleneck creating searing, echoey acoustic runs, but instead a classic folk finger style technique. This record reminds a lot of someone like Stephan Grossman who has made a career out of using both blues and folk techniques. Everything is sung in English, although his vast live calendar appears to be in his native Germany.<br />

An absolute special feature is the game on the lap steel guitar : This instrument is placed after Hawaiian style on your lap, the slides are produced with a Steelbar . Outstanding representatives of this style of play were , among others, Black Ace , Casey Bill Weldon and Oscar "Buddy" Woods.<br />
<br />
Peter Funk is a recognized expert in this instrument , author of two corresponding textbooks (published in Schell Music Verlag, Hamburg ) and sought-after workshop instructor .<br />

<br />
Niels belongs to the younger generation of pianists dedicated to the authentic Boogie Woogie & Blues piano. The music of the pioneers Albert Ammons , Pete Johnson and Meade Lux Lewis and the reproduction of their boogie hits such as " Yancey Special" or " Honky Tonk Train Blues " is one of his craft , but also the further development of this passionate music and contemporary involvement<br />
<br />
Influences can be heard in his performances and allows him to produce an authentic and unique sound on the piano . His sponsor is none other than Axel Zwingenberger . Niels is happy to see again and again on the big festivals , most recently , he convinced the renowned Blues and Boogie event in Brussels. But this trio is not only traditional, but also bold and innovative ; great fun playing and a lot of energy distinguishes this versatile lineup ! It will be hot!<br />
<br />
His sideman Bernd Becker and Andreas Bock cakes are among the most prominent and busiest blues musicians in Germany at all and will accompany the piano virtuoso absolutely emotionally and tastefully . Of course they will also provide a solo show off their skills.Chase The Blueshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09500684769522121420noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246873116744973676.post-3369268986908343642014-03-10T21:48:00.001+09:002014-03-10T21:48:09.497+09:00Alwin Schönberger - The Fingerstyle File<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLrWG_3opZWP7JvayLiUYmVc6Dh8b1bti6tUbLPEak8noOrGgZwwQfQR5VeLTe3iL4cRnZPQgOqwmJ4p3VIDRtkXPKGOqDmWlvfCA7ujbqeOGuYdbOaI1xS39HjcsdRbBXtIpbCTMEd-U/s1600/Alwin+Sch%C3%B6nberger+-+The+Fingerstyle+File+-+Front.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLrWG_3opZWP7JvayLiUYmVc6Dh8b1bti6tUbLPEak8noOrGgZwwQfQR5VeLTe3iL4cRnZPQgOqwmJ4p3VIDRtkXPKGOqDmWlvfCA7ujbqeOGuYdbOaI1xS39HjcsdRbBXtIpbCTMEd-U/s1600/Alwin+Sch%C3%B6nberger+-+The+Fingerstyle+File+-+Front.jpg" height="194" width="200" /></a>Styles : Acoustic Blues, Country Blues<br />

About Roger Hubbard<br />
Born in 1950 in Brighton, England, Roger remains one of the UK's major exponents of the slide guitar.<br />
At the age of 15 he was starting to play at folk clubs in the Brighton area. In 1968, continuing an interest in Country and Delta blues, he started his own club above "The Lewes Arms" in Lewes, Sussex. Along with fellow musicians Sam Mitchell and Dick Wardell, the club featured guest performances by Jo Ann Kelly and her brother Dave Kelly, Simon Prager, Steve Rye, Bob Hall, Graham Hine, Andy Fernbach and Tony McPhee (who was later to form the Groundhogs).<br />
The club later moved to Brighton.<br />
<br />
In 1971 Roger opened for Muddy Waters at The Gardener Centre, Brighton. He also appeared at the Cambridge Folk Festival and on the first pyramid stage at Glastonbury the same year.<br />
<br />
In 1972 Muddy Waters was quoted in Sounds Magazine as saying,<br />
"Roger Hubbard is as good as any blues guitarist in the U.K. or the United States".<br />
<br />
His first album Brighton Belle Blues was recorded in 1970 by Nick Perls for his US Blue Goose label. Nick was a key figure on the American blues trail, rediscovering the likes of Son House and Skip James. Having played his 1935 National Steel Duolian for many years, Roger now plays an electric resonator guitar of his own design, known as "The Hub" as well as a steel resonator mandolin given to him by the AMI company in Munich.<br />
<br />
Roger is currently gigging with his band Buick 6 as well as doing solo and duo work.<br />
<br />
His song Home Lovin' Man was recorded by US blues man Eric Bibb on his 2003 album Natural Light .<br />

<br />
<br />
Keeping strictly to the tradition of the self accompanied blues-singer, Don Haupt packs the sound and energy of a full band into a one man show. Whooping vocals and a hefty hand on the guitar playing backed by a right foot not just tapping but stomping the stage so hard it is felt through the floor clear into the back row.<br />
<br />
Brass slide perched on his pinky and guitar at the ready, the bluesman plays the real thing cause he'slived it.......driving semi-trucks through the mountains of the west, working on Mississippi river towboats, bucking haybales, and washing dishes in a multitude of low-end restaurants. Think of guitar slides cut from whiskey bottles, worn out shoe soles, and prison farm field hollers. Think of the weariness that lies in the hearts of men old before their time and of going down to the crossroads at midnight to give the devil his due.<br />
