BLUES NEWS March 2015 2 Letter From The Prez For the first time since the Kentuckiana Blues Society has been sending acts to the International Blues Challenge (IBC), both Randy Colvin and The Beat Daddys made it to the semi-finals of the competition in Memphis. The contest took place January 21-24 and The Beat Daddys became the first KBS band representative to make it to the second round. Randy Colvin joins Jimi V & Screamin' John (2010) and Jimmy Davis (2011) as the third KBS solo/duo representative to make it to the semi's. Noah Wotherspoon of Cincinnati placed second in the band division and was awarded the Gibson Guitar Award as the best guitarist at this year's contest. We'll have photos and an article on the IBC in a future edition of Blues News. Congratulations guys and great job! Crescent Hill Radio is now a reporting station for Living Blues magazine. WCHQ has been a reporting station for the Roots Music Report since late 2011, but Living Photo by Cheryl Cissell Blues will only accept terrestrial radio broadcasters to provide information and playlists. After Crescent Hill Radio began broadcasting on the FM dial at 100.9 last October, the magazine accepted our application as a reporting entity. The Living Blues magazine Radio Chart appears in the back of every issue and contains the top 25 blues artists from around the world. The Louisville station will now have their information added to these charts. Crescent Hill Radio is also looking to local and regional artists to help create jingles for the station. WCHQ requests that any interested musicians send a 10 to 20 second jingle promoting the station by Monday, March 23. All submissions will be considered for airplay and two entries will be chosen at random to receive one of two 10 hour recording sessions at either Downtown Recording or DSL Studios. For more information, visit the radio station's website at http://www.crescenthillradio.com/. Notable events this month include Grammy nominees Dave Alvin and Phil Alvin at Headliners Music Hall on Wednesday, March 4. The Alvin's were nominated for best blues album of the year but they lost out to Johnny Winter. KBS members can get a $5.00 discount by selecting the ticket link on the Headliners website at http:// headlinerslouisville.com/ and using the password BLASTERS. Stevie Ray's has a lot planned for the month of March starting with The Beat Daddys on Friday, March 6. The band is making its first appearance in Louisville since competing at this year's IBC. The next night the bar will have both da Mudcats, who are celebrating their 30th anniversary in 2015, and Mike Milligan and Steam Shovel from Kokomo, IN. Stevie Ray's will host their eighth Hall of Fame Benefit on Sunday, March 15. The two newest members of the hall of fame will be inducted that night with their portraits being added to the wall of the blues bar. All proceeds for the evening go to the Animal Care Society of Louisville. The 2013 IBC solo/duo contest winner Little G Weevil will be at Ste- vie Ray's on Thursday, March 19. Little G is scheduled to start recording his next album in April of this year. The Rabbit Hash General Store in Rabbit Hash, KY started a new music series in January. They'll have the jug band called the Cincinnati Dancing Pigs on Sunday, March 15 and the duo of Eric “Catfish” Evans and Sa- rah “Cadillac” Johnson on Sunday, March 22. You can find their full schedule online at http:// www.rabbithash.com/. Johnny Rawls was voted the most outstanding blues singer of 2013 by Living Blues magazine. He's bringing his Soul Blues Revue to Natasha's Bistro in Lexington on Wednesday, March 25. The blues society would like to welcome an old friend back as our newest board member. Steve Walls served on the KBS board from 2000 to 2007. He has played music around Louisville since he was a teenager and Steve was one of the original members of The Saints along with Ricky Mason, Dickie Durlauf, Bruce Lively and Bill Dean. He also played in the Rocket 88's and Blue Collar. Good to have you back, Steve. Gary BLUES NEWS March 2015 3 Johnny “Rolling Stone” Wright By Dave Kyle, photos courtesy of Steve Rusin In the '70s, a couple friends I had played in bands with decided to open a record- ing studio in Terre Haute, Indiana. Steve Rusin and Steve Brown built Harvest Sound Studio in the attached garage of Brown's home. It was a simple setup with an 8-track, Tascam A-H, 1/2" reel-to-reel recorder, two TEAC, 16 channel boards, piano and drum booth. These guys were kind enough to use me on some record- ing sessions, one of which turned out to be a landmark for me. Rusin and I had played in the area's only blues band earlier in the '70s. Through his vast knowledge of the format I began my own dedication to this type music, which lasts to this day. Through a mutual friend, Rusin was introduced to a blues guitar player and sing- er who worked at Terre Haute Malleable, a steel mill on the city's north side. His name was Johnny Wright, a gentleman of about fifty-years-old, ancient to us, in our mid-twenties.

  • Early Blues Bibliography
    EARLY BLUES BIBLIOGRAPHY In any selection of books the choice must inevitably be subjective as to what to include or exclude. This selection has ommitted some choices that other might have included. Also there are many articles, periodicals and magazines that provide information for the researcher that cannot be included here but are, perhaps, in Robert Ford's 'Blues Bibliography' or Edward Komara's '100 Books Every Blues Fan Should Have'. This selection is based very much on my own collection of books found in markets, second hand book shops but more recently through Amazon and the web site 'Abe Books' Many books are out of print, have reached the third, fourth or later edition but details are included here that will allow the collector to locate and purchase their own choice. I have not sought to comment on the accuracy, usefulness or expertise of each publication and care should be taken on choice of purchase as many are price inflated when a little more research will lead to better value for money. Where possible I have tended to provide details of hard cover books but many are also available in soft cover at a much reduced price. It should also be remembered that any list such as this is out of date the moment that it is produced. New books are regularly published. The University Presses of America provide a sound source of academic work under the general priciple of 'Publish or Perish' which reflects the wide range of books from the very simple history to the in depth difficult to read study of an aspect of my favourite genre of music - The Blues.

  • Blueink Newsletter April 2016
    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.

  • Big Walter Horton, Blues Harmonica Giant, Classic Sides 1951-1956 (3 CD) Di Bear Family, Uscito Nel 2010, Dopo La Stesura Di Questo Documento
    WALTER HORTON, AN EASY MAN Discografia completa commentata di Sugarbluz Walter Horton nasce il 6 aprile 1918 in una fattoria vicino a Horn Lake, Mississippi, Contea DeSoto, ma nel suo primo anno d’età la famiglia, che include un fratello, Albert, e tre sorelle, Katy, Maggie e Bernice, si trasferisce nella vicina Memphis, Tennessee. Dapprima si dedica al pianoforte, ma poi il suo passatempo preferito diventa accompagnare, con l’armonica che un bel giorno suo padre porta a casa, i 78 giri di blues che girano sul grammofono di famiglia. Dopo due anni di pratica e scomparso da poco il padre Walter decide di contribuire al sostentamento familiare, così comincia a suonare per le strade di Memphis arrivando a guadagnare anche otto dollari al giorno, e in poco tempo tra i musicisti locali si comincia a parlare del piccolo Walter, ed è così che conosce Floyd Jones, Johnny Shines, Jimmy DeBerry. Ad appena nove anni registra con la nota Memphis Jug Band dell’armonicista e chitarrista Will Shade (detto Son Brimmer, probabilmente il suo primo maestro di tecnica insieme a Hammie Nixon, fedele partner di 'Sleepy' John Estes); il dato non è genericamente accettato vista la giovane età, ma l’autore Samuel Charters ritiene che sia vero. Il disco esce per Victor, una delle poche etichette discografiche che riesce a far fronte alla Grande Depressione. La compagnia di Chicago, specializzata nella produzione di grammofoni, diventa proprio in quegli anni una divisione della potente RCA (Radio Corporation of America). Durante la crisi economica abbassa drasticamente i costi di produzione e il prezzo di vendita del disco singolo da 75 a 35 centesimi, spostando nei primi anni 1930 il settore race records su una sussidiaria, Bluebird.
