  • Good Morning Blues
    STJHUMRev Vol. 1-1 1 Good Morning Blues: The Autobiography of Count Basie as told to Albert Murray, with a new introduction by Dan Morgenstern Da Capo Press, 2002 $17.50 paperback 50 photographs [originally published by Random House, 1985] Reviewed By Paul Devlin Da Capo has just released a new edition of this book which Quincy Jones called "indispensable to any appreciation of our musical culture". This is the story of Count Basie, the legendary piano player and bandleader who was especially known for swinging the blues, as told to Albert Murray between 1978 and 1984, and published to great fanfare and stellar reviews in late 1985. With a new and valuable introduction by Dan Morgenstern, eminent jazz critic and Director of the Institute for Jazz Studies at Rutgers University, Good Morning Blues will hopefully find its place on the bookshelves of young jazz fans. "When Albert Murray told me that he was going to be, as he put it, Count Basie’s co-writer on the great man’s autobiography, I was both baffled and elated", writes Morgenstern in the introduction to what has to be one of the finest American memoirs. "Elated", he continues, because Basie...had for years been stalling journalists and scholars with the excuse that he was saving anything worth talking about for a (hypothetical) book; baffled not so much because I knew Murray had other literary irons in the fire, but because these two, on the face of it, made such an odd couple. Basie was laid back, laconic, taciturn, the incarnation of the man-of-few words, while Murray was intense, animated, a brilliant and enthusiastic talker, a veritable verbalist.

  • Edinburgh Jazz & Blues Festival Announces Its 2017 Blues Programme
    Edinburgh Jazz & Blues Festival announces its 2017 Blues programme With over 20 blues concerts this year’s programme spans Southern blues, Delta blues, Mississippi blues, Chicago blues, electric blues to acoustic blues. The cast list includes American stars and the best homegrown talent. Born in Vance, Alabama in 1939, Alabama Slim “grew up listening to the old blues since I was a child. I spent summers with my grandparents who had a farm. Them old folks would get to moanin’ while they worked, and I just started moanin’ with them. That’s where I learned to sing”. Alabama Slim is typical of the musicians playing as part of The Music Makers Blue Revue, which has been described as akin to Cuba’s Buena Vista Social Club. As a loose amalgam of elderly Southern blues stars who are on the road together. They make their Scottish debut. They headline the influx of American blues talent which also includes: Texan, Hamilton Loomis who will have you jamming and grooving along with his guitar riffs reminiscent of Kravitz and Stevie Ray Vaughan. His unapologetic sound is classic rock inspired blues at it’s best. Mr Sipp “aka the Mississippi blues child” has a personality full of spirit and a genuine love for the blues. His shows are transformative – taking audiences on a trip back to the heyday of Mississippi blues and the infamous BB King. With roots in gospel, his sound is big, loud and soulful. Idaho born John Nemeth has an astonishing vocal range and top-notch harmonica skills. Winning accolades through the years for his contribution to the blues world, Nemeth delivers electric Blues straight from Memphis.
