He was the youngest child in a family with three brothers and two sisters (three other children died in childbirth). His mother’s name was Medora Kirby Spikes. His father’s name was Munroe Spikes. In about 1893 or 1894 there was an awful fire to the family house and the family moved into one of their rental houses. There was a white woman named Miss Augustine that taught music, coming weekly to teach at the Spikes’ house.

    OFFERS INVITED by Mark Berresford Rare Records The Chequers, Chequer Lane, Shottle, Derbyshire, DE56 2DR, England. Tel: (+44) 1773 550275 Email: [email protected] Postage and packing in purpose-built new boxes extra. Winners only notified. Condition, as ever, guaranteed. Minimum bid unless stated £8/$10, however I reserve the right to refuse bids I consider unrealistic. HOW TO BID Basically, there are two ways of bidding; first is the simple Straight Bid - you offer a fixed amount for an item and if yours is the high - est bid, you win. Secondly, and easier for those more familair with internet auctions, and for those collectors unsure of what to offer, is the Maximum Bid. You offer a bid to a maximum amount, which will be increased in 10% increments over the nearest bid up to your maximum amount. For example, you bid to a maximum of $100 on an item, but the next highest bid is $20 - you will pay $22, i.e. 10% over the the next highest bid. In the event of a tie the fixed bidder, or earliest-placed bid wins. IMPORTANT! Please make clear the system of bidding you are using and currency you are bidding in (Pounds Sterling, Euros or US Dollars). If you have a maximum budget to spend, please advise with your bids. Please also double check your item numbers when bidding - I do not use titles or issue numbers on my auction spreadsheet, so if you bid on the wrong number and win it, it’s yours! Payment by all major Credit and Debit Cards (not AmEx or Diners) as well as £ and US$ personal checks and Paypal and Transferwise.

    Black Swan Returns to Pstjs on October 16!

    October 2016 Volume 41, Number 08 BLACK SWAN RETURNS TO PSTJS ON OCTOBER 16! Alan Phillips, the banjoist, was originally a French horn player who then moved on to piano tuning and restoration. He has played with a variety of Oregon groups, including the Eugene Symphony. That was probably not a banjo gig, but who knows? Ask Alan. The versatile drummer, Ron Leach, is a lifelong student of percussion. He has performed in Latin, blues, jazz, bluegrass, symphonic and theater groups throughout Oregon and was for three years music director aboard the Queen Of The West. Finally, there’s Marilyn Keller, the band’s crowd-pleasing singer. With her flawless vocal styling audiences can well imagine her as one of the stars of the original Black Swan recordings. Marilyn by George Swinford has recently returned from an extended The Black Swan band we’ll be hearing performing tour of northern Europe.

We will approach the subject in two ways: 1. As a musical form. Here students will learn to appreciate and analyze the evolution of the diverse musical techniques that fall under the broad generic banner of "blues." Students will also enrich their understanding of American popular music in general by learning to hear the ways in which it derives from blues. 2. As a cultural product that can be uniquely instructive for the study of American history and culture. After learning to hear the spectrum of stylistic nuance in the blues, students will learn to interpret its significance. In this way students will not only deepen their knowledge of the narrative history of the United States, but will do so from the perspective that only aesthetic analysis can offer. The idea that music discloses basic truths about its social environment is a fundamental principle of musicology; in addition to offering students a course in American history through the lens of one of its most important cultural products, this course introduces students to the practice of musicology.

Three case studies – Mamie Smith, the Carter Family, and Leadbelly – address trends in academic folk music scholarship that juxtaposed an initial rise in a commercial music culture that began with early 1920s race recordings and culminates in the folk-revival in the post-WWII period.
