Photo by Charles Chamblis. 02 SECRET STASH VOLUME 1 - ISSUE 1: TWIN CITIES FUNK & SOUL SEPTEMBER 25, 2012 INTRODUCTION It was three years ago that we launched Secret Stash Records. About a year and a half lat- er, we started working on what would eventually become our biggest release, Twin Cities Funk & Soul: Lost R&B Grooves From Minneapolis/St. Paul 1964-1979. What follows is our attempt to share with you some of the amazing stories, history, and photos that have been so gracious- ly shared with us during the course of producing a compilation of soulful tunes from our hometown. ..... R&B, soul, and funk music in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota went through dra- matic changes during the 1960s and 1970s. Predating these changes, a vibrant jazz scene beginning in the 1920s laid the groundwork with several players being instrumental in helping teach young local R&B mu- sicians how to play. However, many of the early R&B pioneers, including Mojo Buford, Maurice McKin- nies, and Willie Walker, came to Minnesota from other states and brought the music with them.

  • Ron Thompson Remembered
    TGGBS Newsletter March 2020__#8 TGGBS President’s Message: As I peruse the Bay Area looking for interesting places to listen to blues, I luckily received an invitation from singers Earnestine Barze and Wanda Diamond. They brought me to two old school classics in Oakland: Eli’s Mile High Club on MLK Boulevard and Everette and Jones’s Q’s Lounge on Broadway. Earnestine was jam leader for the Monday Night Blues Jam series at Eli’s and told me “get there around 6” to get good parking close by. A fabulously skilled band backed awesome singers all night at Eli’s, including stalwart regulars, Fillmore Slim, who performed his new CD “Sons of The Seven Sisters.” Ninety plus years YOUNG Nat Bolden, who duets with powerhouse singer Sharon Davis, was also there--the real deal here folks. Earnestine is a very special entertainer, with a hot wardrobe and a voice unique in the way she uses phrasing. She sent goosebumps throughout the crowd, letting us know we were hearing the BLUES. Wanda Diamond was sitting in with The Caravan who host at Q’s every Saturday night. Parking is handy at the garage over Yoshi’s. The BBQ there is awesome, and the only grease is on the stage. Ribs, links, beans and cornbread along with great voices all night tell me we are well taken care of in the Bay Area with venues worthy of the most jaded tourists and locals alike. Treat yourself to these two historic gems. Everett & Jones Barbeque will have a plaque on Oakland’s Walk of Fame.

  • A History of the Triangle Bar Building 1822 Riverside Avenue South Minneapolis, Minnesota
    A HISTORY OF THE TRIANGLE BAR BUILDING 1822 RIVERSIDE AVENUE SOUTH MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA PREPARED FOR GREATER TWIN CITIES BLUES MUSIC SOCIETY PREPARED BY PENNY A. PETERSEN AND CHARLENE K. ROISE HESS, ROISE AND COMPANY THE FOSTER HOUSE 100 NORTH FIRST STREET MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA 55401 NOVEMBER 2010 1872 On October 16, Riverside Avenue is opened for traffic. Running southeast from the intersection of Cedar Avenue and South Fourth Street, it is a rare diagonal in the city grid, which is primarily oriented to the cardinal points. Riverside cuts through a number of blocks before reaching its southeastern terminus at Franklin Avenue, creating some triangular blocks on either side of the new avenue.1 1876 A horse-powered streetcar line that had ended at Washington and Nineteenth Avenues South is extended to Riverside Avenue and follows it for several blocks. Access to public transportation makes the corner at Cedar and Riverside more attractive for commercial development.2 1883 Block 179, in the Town of Minneapolis, which had been split by Riverside Avenue, is further altered when owners Louis and Julia Meldal and Reinert and Annie B. Sunde replat it as Meldal and Sunde‘s Subdivision of Block 179. Originally, composed of ten lots, the replatted block now has 38 lots. This same year, the Meldals deed a dozen lots in the new subdivision to the Sundes, including Lot 38, the future site of the Triangle Bar.3 Like many in the Cedar-Riverside neighborhood, Louis Meldal and Reinert Sunde are Scandinavian immigrants. Sunde was born around 1842 in Norway and immigrated to the United States as a young man.

  • PAY YOUR DUES at the UNION a History of the Union
    , August 27, 1981 Sweet Potato Advertisement from PAY YOUR DUES AT THE UNION A History of the Union Bar Prepared for Prepared by Minnesota Blues Society Penny A. Petersen Charlene K. Roise December 2015 Hess, Roise and Company The Foster House 100 North First Street Minneapolis, Minnesota 55401 Note: The building that housed the Union Bar is located at the intersection of East Hennepin and Central Avenues Northeast. Both street names are used interchangeably in primary sources that refer to this site, but the address of the Union Bar is most commonly 507 East Hennepin. For the sake of consistency, this account will use East Hennepin for the building numbered 505–507 and Central Avenue Northeast for the building numbered 509–513, even though the name “East Hennepin” was not adopted until 1913. 1852 James Sargent Lane, age nineteen, settles in Saint Anthony. There, he joins his older brothers Silas and Isaac, who had arrived in 1848. The brothers work in the lumber business.1 The Lane brothers were born in New Brunswick, Canada, although both their parents are natives of Maine. Their father, Silas Nowell Lane, a veteran of the War of 1812 and a lumberman, moved to Canada, continuing to harvest the pine forest across a national border.2 1855 The Lane brothers are joined in Saint Anthony by their parents, Silas and Velona (or Velma in some sources), and younger brother, Leonidas.3 1856 By this year, the entire family lives on a parcel of land at the corners of Fifth Street, Bay Street (present-day East Hennepin), and Mill Street (present-day Central Avenue Northeast).
