  • Robert Johnson's “Terraplane Blues,”
    1 The Significance of Cars in the Delta: Robert Johnson’s “Terraplane Blues,” (Vocalion, 03416, 1937) Abstract: Robert Johnson's "Terraplane Blues" was a modest hit for the newly recorded bluesman. Notable musically for its elaborate intertwining rhythms and disjointed sections, interpretations of the song have revolved around its lyrical double entendres that equate a woman to a car to discuss her infidelity and the narrator's resultant inability to arouse or satisfy his partner sexually. Although the car in the title has been identified as a Hudson model, scant attention has been paid to the socio-cultural significance of cars in the Delta in the late 1930s. Cars represent a charged locus of convergence of meanings in the Mississippi Delta: a commodity that condenses not only racialized, socio-economic relations, but also the forces of modernization. Ambiguously identified as both means of mobility and significant investments, cars symbolize both escape and entrapment by the economic system. Recontextualizing the central symbol in "Terraplane Blues" with the aid of Federal Writers Project interviews and sociological studies of the Delta complicates our understanding of the meaning of the song. The affective shifts associated with sexual betrayal and frustration, as well as the musical leaps and gaps, map onto the contested meanings of automobiles among an impoverished and largely immobilized African American population during the Depression. Keywords: Johnson, Robert, 1911-1938 Blues musicians -- Mississippi Blues (Music) -- Mississippi Guitar music (Blues) Automobiles -- Social aspects -- United States -- History -- 20th century 2 The Significance of Cars in the Delta: Robert Johnson’s “Terraplane Blues,” (Vocalion, 03416, 1937) “I had a 4,000 dollar car and 3,900 dollars in my pocket.

The blues, a form of music that seems as ancient as the emotions it conveys, is actually less than a hundred years old. Sometime in the mists of the late 1890s, somewhere in the South, some unknown singer (or singers) first settled on the now-familiar three-line verse, with its AAB rhyme scheme and its line length of five stressed syllables, e.g.: Hitch up my pony, saddle up my black mare, Hitch up my pony, saddle up my black mare, I'm gonna find a rider, baby, in the world somewhere. (Charlie Patton, "Pony Blues") Although the term "blues" came to be applied to any minor-key lament—in the 1920s and 1930s to almost any kind of song—the authentic blues songs are those that hew to this structure. While the sentiments, chord progressions, vocal and instrumental styles that came to distinguish the blues were all lying at hand in the black musical culture of the South, the form itself is just too specific not to have had a very particular origin.

    Blues: An Oral Tradition Fall 2017 Instructor Asher Tobin Chodos Lecture Tuesday and Thursday 6:30p-7:50p in Center Hall, room 216 Office Hours Thursdays 4:00pm - 6:00pm at the Art of Espresso Teaching Assistants hold office hours by appointment • Leah Bowden – last names Abreu-pereira-da-sil to Hernandez-Martinez • Kyle Motl -- (Hesseltine - Morris) • Elliot Patros -- (Mostafa-Zou) Final Exam Tuesday, 12/12/2017, 7:00p-9:59p, location TBA Course Summary The blues has meant many different things over the course of the 20th century. As an extension of African musical practices within the American slave population and the black communities of the Jim Crow south, the blues puts us in touch with the resilience of African American cultural expression in the face of extraordinary cruelty and repression. We will trace the changes wrought upon this music by the urbanization of America's black population, and its re-signification as an emblem of far left politics across the racial divide after the depression. We will study its decisive importance for the advent of Rock-n-Roll in the 1950s and the radical counter-cultural movements of the 1960s, as well as its influence on popular musical forms all over the world, continuing to the present day. This is a course that will help students to understand how blues music works, but it is also a chance for students to consider its meaning in the context of the history of race, class, and gender in the United States. Course Objectives This course traces the history of the blues from their beginnings to the present.
