Obviously, these items would be a good gift idea for any occasion year-round, as well as a gift for yourself! We do not include many, if any at all, single CDs in the guide. Most everything contained will be multiple CD sets, DVDs, CD/DVD sets, books and the like. Of course, you can always look though our back issues to see what came out in 2017 (and prior years), but none of us would want to attempt to decide which CDs would be a fitting ad- dition to this guide. As with 2016, the year 2017 was a bit on the lean side as far as reviews go of box sets, books and DVDs - it appears tht the days of mass quantities of boxed sets are over - but we do have some to check out. These are in no particular order in terms of importance or release dates.

  • “Just a Dream”: Community, Identity, and the Blues of Big Bill Broonzy. (2011) Directed by Dr
    GREENE, KEVIN D., Ph.D. “Just a Dream”: Community, Identity, and the Blues of Big Bill Broonzy. (2011) Directed by Dr. Benjamin Filene. 332 pgs This dissertation investigates the development of African American identity and blues culture in the United States and Europe from the 1920s to the 1950s through an examination of the life of one of the blues’ greatest artists. Across his career, Big Bill Broonzy negotiated identities and formed communities through exchanges with and among his African American, white American, and European audiences. Each respective group held its own ideas about what the blues, its performers, and the communities they built meant to American and European culture. This study argues that Broonzy negotiated a successful and lengthy career by navigating each groups’ cultural expectations through a process that continually transformed his musical and professional identity. Chapter 1 traces Broonzy’s negotiation of black Chicago. It explores how he created his new identity and contributed to the flowering of Chicago’s blues community by navigating the emerging racial, social, and economic terrain of the city. Chapter 2 considers Broonzy’s music career from the early twentieth century to the early 1950s and argues that his evolution as a musician—his lifelong transition from country fiddler to solo male blues artist to black pop artist to American folk revivalist and European jazz hero—provides a fascinating lens through which to view how twentieth century African American artists faced opportunities—and pressures—to reshape their identities. Chapter 3 extends this examination of Broonzy’s career from 1951 until his death in 1957, a period in which he achieved newfound fame among folklorists in the United States and jazz and blues aficionados in Europe.

  • America's News English
    America's News English Do-it-yourselfers show their class - Back-to-school time not just for book learning Chicago Sun-Times - Friday, September 6, 1996 Author: Mary Houlihan-Skilton An old Chinese proverb proclaims, "Learning is a treasure which accompanies its owner everywhere." It's a state of mind instilled at an early age, and it doesn't stop the day we get out of school. But there comes a time when we are free to follow our more playful interests. And that means no more algebra, history or chemistry. Take mandolin lessons. Throw a pot or two. Design a quilt. Let the funnyman out via an improv class. Make a movie. The possibilities for adult education are endless, especially in a city the size of Chicago. "Always try to learn one new thing each day," was an inspirational rule followed by my immigrant grandfather. He drew a picture of the brain as just a "big old muscle," claiming it had to be exercised and you'd better get to it. Looks like he was onto something. Today scientists are finding evidence that challenging the mind is one way of fighting the aging process and staying vital well into later life. But we don't need scientific proof in favor of learning. Here are some inspiring and energetic suggestions. MAKING MUSIC The Old Town School of Folk Music was founded in the mid-'50s by Frank Hamilton, Dawn Greening and Win Stracke, three music lovers who had a vision. Old Town continues to embody Hamilton's teaching philosophy: Everyone can learn, play and enjoy music in a supportive environment, regardless of skill or ambition.
