    B L U E I N K APRIL 2016 Gator By the Bay Brings Musicians Together in Exciting Pairings Now in its 15th year, Gator By the Bay, May 5-8, 2016, has become a wildly popular San Diego festival tradition known for presenting an eclectic mix of musical styles and a fun- filled atmosphere. Wander among the festival’s seven stages and you can listen to everything from authentic Louisiana Cajun and Zydeco music to Chicago and West Coast Blues, from Latin to Rockabilly and Swing. In recent years, Gator By the Bay has also earned a stand-out reputation for bringing together stellar combinations of musicians in innovative mash-up performances, presenting musical groupings you won’t hear anywhere else. This year is no exception. On Saturday, May 7, San Diego’s own multiple gold guitarist Johnny Vernazza will share the Mardi Gras Stage with blues greats Roy Rogers and John Németh. Often lauded as the “Master of the Slide Guitar”, Roy Rogers’ distinctive style is instantly recognizable. He’s shared duets with such greats as John Lee Hooker and Allen Toussaint, and teamed up with the likes of Norton Buffalo and Ray Manzarek. Harmonica virtuoso, vocalist and songwriter John Németh has multiple Blues Music Awards nominations to his name, and his album, ‘Memphis Grease’, won Best Soul Blues Album at the 2015 Blues Music Awards. He has been nominated for the Blues Music Awards 2016 B.B. King Entertainer of the Year Award, to be given out on May 5. Other notable combined artists’ performances include Sugaray Rayford, Alabama Mike & the Drop Ins with harmonica master Rick Estrin and harmonica and guitar whiz-kid Jon Atkinson on Friday evening, May 6, and Jon Atkinson with Rick Estrin and Fabulous Thunderbird alumna Kim Wilson on Saturday, May 7.

  • The Story of the Blues – a Concise History Harvard University Course Syllabus, Charles Sawyer
    The Story of The Blues – A Concise History Harvard University Course Syllabus, Charles Sawyer The blues was born in the deep south, principally the Mississippi Delta, in the last decade of the 19th century. In the 1930s and '40s a huge number of Black Americans migrated north to Chicago and the blues went with them. At the same time, the blues spilled over into Memphis. In the 1950's the blues had grown up from country music into something we call Urban Blues. The music had changed from solo, acoustic, country music to ensemble, electric city music. Urban Blues had become national music, not regional music, but it was still the music of African Americans. What the white population of America knew of blues was blues-influenced music. In the mid-1950s American Popular Music was transformed by a new generation of musicians through recordings of small, independent record labels, principally Sun Records, located in Memphis, Chess Records, located in Chicago, Atlantic Records, located in New York City, and Specialty Records, located in Los Angeles. This was Rock And Roll. Rock and Roll was not blues, but it was more than mere blues-influenced music, it was blues- drenched music. Blues was confined to the shadows, lurking behind racial barriers. In all of America, very few white Americans could tell you who B.B. King was, in spite of the fact he was constantly crisscrossing the country, playing to sell-out crowds. By the 1960s blues may have been little known to whites in America, but a few white kids on both sides of the Atlantic were discovering it, and together they would change popular music profoundly and permanently.
