    STEVE CROPPER facebook.com/stevecropper twitter.com/officialcropper Image not found or type unknown youtube.com/channel/UCQk6gXkhbUNnhgXHaARGskg playitsteve.com en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Cropper open.spotify.com/artist/1gLCO8HDtmhp1eWmGcPl8S If Yankee Stadium is “the house that Babe Ruth built,” Stax Records is “the house that Booker T, and the MG’s built.” Integral to that potent combination is MG rhythm guitarist extraordinaire Steve Cropper. As a guitarist, A & R man, engineer, producer, songwriting partner of Otis Redding, Eddie Floyd and a dozen others and founding member of both Booker T. and the MG’s and The Mar-Keys, Cropper was literally involved in virtually every record issued by Stax from the fall of 1961 through year end 1970.Such credits assure Cropper of an honored place in the soul music hall of fame. As co-writer of (Sittin’ On) The Dock Of The Bay, Knock On Wood and In The Midnight Hour, Cropper is in line for immortality. Born on October 21, 1941 on a farm near Dora, Missouri, Steve Cropper moved with his family to Memphis at the age of nine. In Missouri he had been exposed to a wealth of country music and little else. In his adopted home, his thirsty ears amply drank of the fountain of Gospel, R & B and nascent Rock and Roll that thundered over the airwaves of both black and white Memphis radio. Bit by the music bug, Cropper acquired his first mail order guitar at the age of 14. Personal guitar heroes included Tal Farlow, Chuck Berry, Jimmy Reed, Chet Atkins, Lowman Pauling of the Five Royales and Billy Butler of the Bill Doggett band.

  • The Blues Dogs Band Has Been Helping Him Discover Wisconsin, So Be Sure to Welcome Him
    .After over 40 years playing blues in bars, these guys got it down. Dues have been paid and paid again. The Chippewa Valley Blues Society presents Harvey Fields started playing drums as a boy at the Checkerboard Lounge in Chicago with his mentors, Howlin' Wolf and Muddy Waters. His Uncle, Lucky Evans was an alumnus of the Howlin' Wolf band and took Harvey all around the world, playin' blues and payin dues. Steve John Meyer, lead vocalist, guitarist and harp player, is a graduate of thousands of smoky nights. He's led the 'dream life'... jammin' blues in every bar in Minnesota and Wisconsin, then spending the night on the road, in an old beat up van, usually cold, and snowing. Steve started blowin harp in '68, playin on the lakeshore, in laundry rooms and culverts to find 'the sound.' One night he was jamming with some guys he just met in an old roadhouse down by Cedar Lake and the place was packed. At one point the hot, sweaty crowd just stopped dancing to watch, and he never looked back. He knew he'd finally found it. Dean Wolfson plays bass. He's been jammin' round the twin cities since the 70's. Dean also plays for folk June 16, 2009 rocker Geno LaFond. The Blues Dogs band has been helping him discover Wisconsin, so be sure to welcome him. Kenny Danielson, from LacDuFlambeau, native American blues guitarist, singer and "long time blues enthusiast" rounds out the quartet for the evening. The Blues Dogs Next Week Upcoming Schedule The Pumps The Pumps If you haven't been to one of their June 20th Barnacles on Mille Lacs shows, you're missing out on a trio of cool cats, all June27th Smalley’s in Stillwater veterans of the local and national scene - Tom Brill July 4th Brewski's in Balsam Lake on guitar and vocals, Buck Barrickman on bass and July 11th Noon at the Harbor Bar Blues Fest vocals and Frank Juodis on drums and vocals.

You may share this work for non-commercial purposes only, provided you give attribution to the copyright holder and the publisher, and provide a link to the Creative Commons licence. 6 Dread Love: Reggae, RasTafari, Redemption Introduction Over the last 40 years roots reggae music has been the key medium for the dissemination of the RasTafari message from Jamaica to the world. Aotearoa NZ is no exception to this trend wherein the direct action message that Bob Marley preached to ‘get up stand up’ supported the radical engagements in the public sphere prompted by Black Power.1 In many ways, Marley’s message and demeanour vindicated the radical oppositional strategies that activists had deployed against the Babylon system in contradistinction to the Te Aute Old Boy tradition of tactful engagement. No surprise, then, that roots reggae was sometimes met with consternation by elders, although much of the issue revolved specifically around the smoking of Marijuana, the wisdom weed.2 Yet some activists and gang members paid closer attention to the trans- mission, through the music, of a faith cultivated in the Caribbean, which professed Ethiopia as the root and Haile Selassie I as the agent of redemption. And they decided to make it their faith too.

  • Eric Clapton
    ERIC CLAPTON BIOGRAFIA Eric Patrick Clapton nasceu em 30/03/1945 em Ripley, Inglaterra. Ganhou a sua primeira guitarra aos 13 anos e se interessou pelo Blues americano de artistas como Robert Johnson e Muddy Waters. Apelidado de Slowhand, é considerado um dos melhores guitarristas do mundo. O reconhecimento de Clapton só começou quando entrou no “Yardbirds”, banda inglesa de grande influência que teve o mérito de reunir três dos maiores guitarristas de todos os tempos em sua formação: Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck e Jimmy Page. Apesar do sucesso que o grupo fazia, Clapton não admitia abandonar o Blues e, em sua opinião, o Yardbirds estava seguindo uma direção muito pop. Sai do grupo em 1965, quando John Mayall o convida a juntar-se à sua banda, os “Blues Breakers”. Gravam o álbum “Blues Breakers with Eric Clapton”, mas o relacionamento com Mayall não era dos melhores e Clapton deixa o grupo pouco tempo depois. Em 1966, forma os “Cream” com o baixista Jack Bruce e o baterista Ginger Baker. Com a gravação de 4 álbuns (“Fresh Cream”, “Disraeli Gears”, “Wheels Of Fire” e “Goodbye”) e muitos shows em terras norte americanas, os Cream atingiram enorme sucesso e Eric Clapton já era tido como um dos melhores guitarristas da história. A banda separa-se no fim de 1968 devido ao distanciamento entre os membros. Neste mesmo ano, Clapton a convite de seu amigo George Harisson, toca na faixa “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” do White Album dos Beatles. Forma os “Blind Faith” em 1969 com Steve Winwood, Ginger Baker e Rick Grech, que durou por pouco tempo, lançando apenas um album.

  • Bargain Blues
    100% unofficial newsletter for P&O Blues Cruises Bargain Blues – book now! Those of you who keep a close eye on our ‘Blues@Sea’ Facebook Page will be aware that last month there was a sudden, unannounced, increase by P&O in the price of the November Blues Revue. This decision was reversed with the alert that the £99 price may well increase on Tuesday 19th September. DON’T DELAY!!!! Phone 0800 130 0030 (Currently there are almost 250 ‘cruisers’ signed up) 5-4-3-2-1 (Countdown for Kaz) For many years it’s been the ultimate accolade for UK blues artists to appear on the Paul Jones BBC Radio 2 Blues Show. In this edition (which focusses primarily on the great ‘Swamp Blues’ harpist Slim Harpo) a Kaz Hawkins track is featured. Kaz is at the start of her final tour with this fabulous multi-national band – ‘Cruisers’, of course, get two ‘bites at the cherry’ in November. This programme is well worth a listen - http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b09039ny Ciao! Perhaps the least well known ‘Blues Revue’ act (to UK fans at least) is Veronica Sbergia & Max De Bernardi (Italy)…but that’s about to change. They swept to victory in the 2013 European Blues Challenge (as ‘The Red Wine Serenaders) and since then have performed across the Continent with their country blues and ragtime, hokum, jug band and rural music from the 20’s and 30’s. Veronica and Max who use strictly acoustic instruments such ukulele, washboard, kazoo and resophonic guitars, are terrific musicians and a lot-of-fun! Check-them-out on this video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nj1rWJBuUJI Out of the studio into the Spinning Top! Norman Beaker and his band seem to be constantly on the road …particularly on Mainland Europe.

  • 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.

  • Earnest Walker Jr
    EARNEST WALKER JR. Smooth Groove Artist Earnest Walker Jr. spent the first 15 years of his life traveling the country with his family. The experience taught him an appreciation of different cultures and musical styles. At the age of nine, Walker started playing the guitar, but a year later he picked up the saxophone and it has been his passion ever since. When he was only 14 years old, the established musicians in Pensacola, Florida felt his playing was so essential they would sneak Walker into night clubs to showcase his talents. Walker studied music education at Bethune-Cookman College in Daytona Beach, and later attended Florida State University, quickly establishing himself as one of the most sought-after saxophonists on both campuses and all around the state of Florida. After college, Walker joined the Air Force, where he performed with different groups in each town he was stationed. After the military, Walker toured and performed in most of the central to eastern portions of the country, including Miami, Daytona Beach, Charleston SC, Philadelphia, New Orleans, Atlanta, Tampa, Orlando and Denver. In the late 90’s, he moved to Philadelphia and became a member of the prestigious smooth jazz band “Blind Date”. Returning to Miami in 2003, Earnest Walker Jr is well known in the city of South Beach as a show stopper that is sure to leave the audience breathless. Location: Miami, FL USA Influences: Grover Washington Jr, Cannonball Adderly, Maceo Parker, Earth Wind & Fire, Gerald Albright, Ronnie Laws Booking & Media Contact: HJ Entertainment | 816.945.0288 | www.EarnestWalkerJr.com ON STAGE As solid, compelling and in the pocket as Walker is on disc, he’s best known in the jazz world as a powerhouse performer whose stage presence and creative style guarantees that every crowd is in an uproar.
