  • S Mo K O Po Lit an Maj 2016 Nr 5
    I SMOKOPOLITAN MAJ 2016 NR 5 W fandomie bojowo. Jak zwykle W fandomie wybuchła wojna. I to dwukrotnie, licząc tylko to, co zdarzyło się od ostatniego numeru „Smokopolitana”. Dzień jak co dzień, kwartał jak kwartał. Najpierw na horyzoncie ukazała się doroczna zajdlowa zawierucha. Tym razem poszło o fakt, że na tzw. liście pomocniczej (tj. liście książek, które w danym roku można nominować do nagrody im. J. Zajdla) pojawiło się sporo powieści opublikowanych w tzw. vanity press, czyli wydawnictwach, w których autor musi zapłacić za wydanie swojej książki. Grupa pisarzy z Robertem Szmidtem i Rafałem Dębskim na czele zażądała, aby ich nazwiska nie były umieszczane na liście razem z „tego typu wydawnictwami”. Jakkolwiek można zrozumieć motywy, którymi kierowali się uczestnicy akcji protestacyjnej (generalne potępienie dla praktyki wydawnictw vanity press), to sama forma przypominała raczej strzelanie z samopału do bananów. Narobili dymu, ludzie porozmawiali o całej sytuacji i nawet się trochę pokłócili, ktoś się obraził, a ktoś inny pisał o pozywaniu do sądu – i właściwie tyle. Bo z technicznego punktu widzenia nic więcej tymi środkami osiągnąć się nie dało. Trudno przecież oczekiwać, że na liście wszystkich powieści wydanych w danym roku (bo tym w istocie jest lista pomocnicza), nie będzie książek „znanych autorów” albo książek z „tego typu” wydawnictw. W ogóle trudno oczekiwać, aby z listy „wszystkich” usunięto „coś” i aby ta lista nadal była listą „wszystkich”. Tak na logikę. Choć z drugiej strony nie sposób odmówić zajdlowym protestującym pewnej słuszności. I ta uwaga dotyczy wszystkich zajdlowych protestujących, nie tylko tegorocznych. Zwolennicy Zajdla potarzają bowiem jak mantrę, że to dobra nagroda (nie idealna, ale wciąż dobra), o ile tylko wiemy, co ona reprezentuje – że jest plebiscytem, że laureata wybierają uczestnicy Polconu i tak dalej, i tak dalej.

INFORMATIONEN Mit insgesamt annähernd dreihundert Einzeltiteln beschreibt der Blueshistoriker und Musikwissenschaftler Bill Dahl aus Chicago die bislang umfassendste Geschichte des elektrischen Blues von seinen Anfängen in den späten 1930er Jahren bis in das aktuelle Jahrtausend. Bevor in den Dreißigerjahren Tonabnehmersysteme, erste primitive Verstärker und Beschallungssysteme und schließ- lich mit Gibsons ES-150 ein elektrisches Gitarren-Serienmodell entwickelt wurde, spielte die erste Generation der Gitarrenpioniere im Blues in den beiden Jahrzehnten vor Ausbruch des Zweiten Weltkriegs auf akustischen Instrumenten. Doch erst mit Hilfe der elektrischen Verstärkung konnten sich Gitarristen und Mundharmonikaspielern gegenüber den Pianisten, Schlagzeugern und Bläsern in ihrer Band behaupten, wenn sie für ihre musikalischen Höhenflüge bei einem Solo abheben wollten. Auf zwölf randvollen CDs, jeweils in einem Dreier-Set in geschmackvollen und vielfach aufklappbaren Digipacks, hat Bill Dahl die wichtigsten und etliche nahezu in Vergessenheit geratene Beispiele für die bedeutendste Epoche in der Geschichte des Blues zusammengestellt.

  • “Covering” the Bluesman from a Distance
    Introduction In many ways, my journey towards this thesis topic began with my brother’s music collection. Throughout my teens he would introduce me to a wide range of local and international acts, many of which were influenced by African-American blues artists. This influence is evident in both their construction of sound and the old songs that they rerecorded. From there I began tracing musical influences from song credits and interview excerpts—a path often travelled by musicians and fans alike—that would eventually lead me to an appreciation of blues music. The penultimate step towards this topic came in the form of my honours thesis—a creative project that involved rerecording several tracks from the catalogue of an early Australian country music artist, one of which was titled “Blue Mountain Blues”.1 From there I turned to blues music in Australia. Initially conceived as a history of “Australian blues”, it became apparent that this proposed sub-genre struggled to unify and explain the disparate musical styles contained therein. Although each artist was clearly addressing the musical characteristics and influences I had come to recognise as “blues music”, it all sounded different. In the meantime, I developed a keen interest in a fellow colleague’s thesis topic that addressed the role of “covers” within the Australian music industry (Giuffre, 2005). My epiphany—and catalyst for the current thesis topic—eventually presented itself while viewing a live performance from Peter Green Splinter Group. The concert was split into two courses: an acoustic entrée featuring several Robert Johnson “covers”; and, an electric main with side dishes of early Fleetwood Mac material—the band Green had help found many years ago.

  • The Charles Banks / J.J. Malone Story – History of the Bay Area's Rhythm
    J.J. MALONE The Charles Banks / J.J. Malone Story – History of the Bay Area’s Rhythm Rockers by Opal Louis Nations Jovial, conversational, erudite and charismatic are all words to describe the irrepressible character of Charles Banks, a scholar with a penchant for geography and history in his formative years who turned to music during midlife and wound up a poet and painter of some note. His fish series watercolors and acrylics was shown at galleries like the Jack Wold Fine Arts in Minneapolis. Described as a Bay Area blues bassist with “a heart of gold,” Charles is best remembered as long serving stalwart with the original Rhythm Rockers, originator of Blues on Tap, and regular feature in the Sonny Rhodes and Clarence “Guitar” Sims blues bands. A veteran of thirty-five years in the blues biz, Charles played alongside such greats as Lowell Fulson, Eddie “Cleanhead” Vinson and Lightnin’ Hopkins. Born December 4, 1938 in Taylorville, Illinois, southeast of Springfield, Charles grew up in a reasonably happy country environment. His mother, Grace Drasdale, played piano at the local Baptist church, and his father, a day laborer who held to stringent disciplinary standards, sang in the church choir. Charles had two younger brothers but no sisters. He always had a passion for music and began as a small child ________________________________________________________________ Charles Banks, p./1 © 2008 Opal Louis Nations blowing on tubes. He sang in church with his brothers, tested his skills on various harmonicas, and wound up plucking the ukulele (he once owned eleven of them.) Few radio stations broadcast African American music in his general vicinity.
