2021-04-03 Press Release Margie Evans April 3, 2021 OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE MARGIE EVANS, ICONIC AND SOPHISTICATED QUEEN OF THE BLUES, DIES AT 81 Dateline: Shreveport, Louisiana, April 3, 2021 Margie Evans, a legendary, international Blues and Gospel entertainer, songwriter, music producer, actress, music historian, community activist and motivational spokeswoman, who broke barriers for African American female Blues performers with poise, dignity and sophistication, died on March 19, 2021. In addition to her musicianship, Evans is noted as an activist for parity in music education as well as a promoter of the legacy of Blues music. As she often said, “I’ve been around a long time and I’ve really paid my dues.” She was age of eighty-one. A family statement did not reveal the cause of death. The lengthy career of the unsung, effervescent entertainer is chronicled in her first biographical memoir, “Margie Evans: The Classy, Sophisticated Queen of the Blues, due for release on Amazon in two weeks. In all of her endeavors, Evans embodied African American women of courage, faith and wisdom who demanded respect. In each of her acting roles, radio commercials, iconic albums and international tours, she represented complex, decisive women, articulating a profound grace, depth, perseverance and dignity in each of her performances. Marjorie Ann Johnson was born in 1939 in Shreveport, Louisiana, in the United States. She chose to be known as Margie. Raised as a devout Christian, Margie Evans’ early exposure to music was through gospel, inspired by her mother, Mrs. Veva Williams, who taught Latin and piano. After graduating from Grambling College, majoring in elementary education, in 1958, Margie moved to Los Angeles, where she later married her longtime friend and neighbor, Rev. Jim Evans. Always very intelligent, well read, talented and articulate, she gained the position of a background vocalist with Billy Ward, with whom she sang between 1958 and 1964, before joining the Ron Marshall Orchestra between 1964 and 1969, singing in Monterey, California. She then successfully auditioned to join the Johnny Otis Band. During her four-year stay there, she performed on The Johnny Otis Show Live at Monterey and Cuttin' Up albums. In addition to her recording and performing duties, Margie used her powerfully positive influence to help set up the Southern California Blues Society to help promote the art form through education and sponsorship. Evans then commenced her solo career in 1973, and found almost immediate chart success. Her single track "Good Feeling" (United Artists 246) entered the R&B chart on June 30, 1973 for four weeks, reaching number 55. However, it was another four years before her single, "Good Thing Queen - Part 1" (ICA 002) entered the same chart listing on July 9, 1977 for eight weeks, peaking at number 47. Also, in 1975, Margie supplied the background vocals on Donald Byrd’s album, Stepping into Tomorrow. Those who knew her knew that Margie Evans heard God’s call at an early age and represented godliness and clean living in all of her performances and international tours. She was always jovial, effervescent and full of life. When resting or preparing for a performance, she could often be heard praising God, praying and singing Gospel hymns in her hotel room and dressing room. Also sandwiched between these hits, in November 1975, Evans appeared on German television filmed at the Berlin-based Jazz Tage concert with Johnny “Guitar” Watson, Bo Diddley and James Booker. Using Bobby Bland as her record producer and part-time song writing partner, Margie co-wrote the song "Soon As the Weather Breaks,”which reached number 76 (R&B) for Mr. Bland in 1980. She has variously worked with Johnny Otis, Bobby Bland, T-Bone Walker, Big Joe Turner, Lowell Fulson, Joe Liggins, Lloyd Glenn, Willie Dixon, Al Bell, and Monk Higgins. Her main influences were Mahalia Jackson, Bessie Smith, Ma Rainey, Big Maybelle and Big Mama Thornton. Ever moving forward, in 1980, Margie performed at the San Francisco Blues Festival and the Long Beach Blues Festival, repeating the feat at the latter a year later. During her international touring, she took part in the American Folk Blues Festivals, sponsored by L+R Records in 1981, 1982 and 1985. As the momentum continued, in 1983, Evans was granted the Keepin' the Blues Alive Award by the Blues Foundation at the historic Peabody Hotel in Memphis, Tennessee. Performing into the early 1990’s, Margie Evans toured the United States, Canada, Australia, Asia and Europe, in addition to participating in the DuMaurier Jazz Festival as well as appearing with Jay McShann at the Toronto Jazz Festival. Motivated by her own reality that “A prophet is honored everywhere except in his own hometown,” an adage from Mark 6:4, also noted in Luke 4:24, in the same decade, Margie then embarked upon her solution through community service, with her daughter Vicki Evans by her side, by helping to organize the 5-4 Optimist Club for local school children from the South Central Los Angeles district, where she became the first African American female President of the auspicious chapter. In reflection of current events in the mid-1990’s, Margie decided to try to recapture an earlier era when the races mixed more easily at various venues, brought together, momentarily at least, by a shared passion for music. Once again, assisted by her daughter, a retired bilingual mentor educator, she decided to launch “Los Angeles Music Week,” a nearly two decades long non-profit annual celebration of locally based musicians in performances ranging from soul to salsa, blues to bolero, bebop to hip- hop. “Music can bring every race together on the face of this Earth,” said Evans, who once sang with a Latino band in Monterey Park. “All of the greatest messages of the world are spoken through music,” Margie shared in the interview for the L.A. Times article, “Instrument for Unity: Singer’s ‘LA Music Week Seeks to Bridge Racial Gaps” by Edward J. Boyer. After her successful 1996 album, Drowning in the Sea of Love, Margie’s latest recording, a collaborative CD and DVD, Unplugged was recorded in 2016 with her dear friend, Swiss Blues singer Philipp Fankhauser, with whom she also recorded other albums, Thun - San Francisco and The Checkerboard Blues Band: Blues for the Lady in 1989, 1994 respectively. In 2015 and 2016, Evans returned to the stage, guesting with Fankhauser in front of sold-out venues throughout Switzerland. In her long and extraordinary career spanning six decades, Margie Evans has not only succeeded as a well-renowned performer, producer, songwriter, motivational speaker and actress, she has also shaped the course of history in her community activism, music advocacy, her classy representation of women in the Blues and in her fight for Traditional Blues to be properly categorized by NARAS in their music awards programs. She started recording in the late 1960s and was still planning to record before her homegoing. Her extensive discography, representative of her classic, inimitable Gospel-flavored soul vocals is well noted in her Wikipedia article. As Margie would often say to those she met, “I’m somebody special, Google me. Know your history.” The filmography of the Margie Evans includes performances with Glendale Light Opera in “Showboat,” playing “Queenie,” an influential role, the role of “Annie” in Daddy Goodness, a Los Angeles-based Roquemore Productions theater performance, along with numerous films, such as Flap Jack Floozie with Teri Garr and From Here to Maternity, both Tom Schiller Productions, Legends of Rhythm and Blues for the BBC London, Tribute to Duke Ellington for United Artists, numerous television roles, as well as commercials and radio performances. As Margie said, reflecting on the news of recent COVID deaths, “People of faith in Christ know that we do not die. When it’s my turn to go home, I will be more alive than I am right now. I will just have changed my address. I will be in the presence of God Almighty.” Although she is famous for singing the Blues and representing her artistry with poise, dignity and classy sophistication, with well-articulated diction unlike the typical female blues singer, in her later years, Margie became a faithful messenger of the Gospel. She sang and spoke about Jesus, sharing in song, The Time for Christ is Now,” Stop and Forgive,” “Jesus Loves Me,” “Amazing Grace” and “It is Well with My Soul” on stage and in local churches. She sang hymns to people who were ill, discouraged, sad or struggling with life’s issues, always encouraging and sharing words of peace, joy, love and wisdom. As many will attest, her life represented the adage, “Live, Laugh, Love.” Margie was always determined to make the most of every opportunity. Her dynamic musical legacy continues to uplift the masses and encourage others to live wisely and make a positive difference in everything you choose to do. She is fondly remembered and cherished by everyone who loved her, knew her and who enjoys her amazing music. She will live on in our hearts forever. The details of the virtual memorial service for Margie Evans will be announced at a later date. Donations can be made in honor of Margie Evans to the Blues Foundation and radio station K-Jazz 88.1 FM, America’s Jazz and Blues Station at kkjz.org. .

  • Boom Boom Boom Boom by Steven Gowin
    Boom Boom Boom Boom by Steven Gowin “You only just watch them damned cowboy shows and drink that cheap beer,” Lydia crabbed at Little Jessie. “Whyn't ya get out and do sumpin'? See a show that ain't Rawhide. Make a friend; don't be a worm no more.” Little Jessie'd spent 30 years taking orders in the Canal Zone with only brief visits home. He'd seen a fellow gamble away his life's savings, survived a near fatal explosion, and witnessed a man crushed and drowned in the Miraflores locks. “You like guitar?” Lydia badgered Jessie, when all he really wanted was a cold PBR, Gunsmoke, and some peace. “I said, guitar what you like?” Jessie nodded and said, “Sure enough, and squeeze box and saxophone, why?” “Why??? Why is cause I ain't standin' another night of you and them cowboys.” Lydia was one of those ladies who wears a big hat to church on Sunday, every Sunday. She said, “I know you know I'm right.” Jessie didn't care about right. He only cared about meanness and bossing and lack thereof. But Lydia was worse and worse. He couldn't do anything, say anything, without her telling him what was wrong with him. The next evening, holding the ticket Lydia'd bought him in hand, Jessie rode the 22 Fillmore across town to where the marquee flashed, John Lee's Boom BOOM R O O M ! ! ! The red and blue neon cheered Jessie, he admitted, and he liked the folks headed in wearing furs and finery and jewels.

    B.B KING LUCILLE 1. Lucille 2. You Move Me So 3. Country Girl 4. No Money, No Luck Blues 5. I Need Your Love 6. Rainin' All the Time 7. I'm With You 8. Stop Putting the Hurt on Me 9. Watch Yourself In 1949, legendary blues guitarist Riley B. King, otherwise known as B.B. King, played a dance hall in Twist, Arkansas. During a scuffle between two patrons fighting over a woman, a barrel of lit kerosene used to heat the venue was knocked to the ground, and set the building ablaze. The show was evacuated, only for King to realize he'd left his Gibson inside, who dove back in to retrieve it. King would later name that first guitar and every forth-coming guitar Lucille, after the woman the two patrons fought over. Fast-forward to 1968, when B.B. King released the album Lucille, (Produced by jazz/blues production legend Bob Thiele) and told the story in full on the eponymous title track. Since that time King has owned a slew of other guitars, all of them named Lucille, and has a deep-seated appreciation for each one. As he says on the album's title track: "I’ve had many guitars since that first incident, and I always call them Lucille. She’s taken me a long way, even brought me some fame...Most of all, she’s kept me alive...being able to eat." Lucille represents early B.B. King at his finest. It's the last traditional blues album before 1969's Completely Well would establish a trademark brand of blues music mixed with lushly arranged string ensembles.
