Bulk dates: Newport Folk Festival, 1963-1969, 1987, 1992; Philadelphia Folk Festival, 1967-1968, 1987. Provenance The Smithsonian Ralph Rinzler Folklife Archives and Collections acquired portions of the Diana Davies Photograph Collection in the late 1960s and early 1970s, when Ms. Davies photographed for the Festival of American Folklife. More materials came to the Archives circa 1989 or 1990. Archivist Stephanie Smith visited her in 1998 and 2004, and brought back additional materials which Ms. Davies wanted to donate to the Ralph Rinzler Folklife Archives. In a letter dated 12 March 2002, Ms. Davies gave full discretion to the Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage to grant permission for both internal and external use of her photographs, with the proviso that her work be credited “photo by Diana Davies.” Restrictions Permission for the duplication or publication of items in the Diana Davies Photograph Collection must be obtained from the Ralph Rinzler Folklife Archives and Collections. Consult the archivists for further information. Scope and Content Note The Davies photographs already held by the Rinzler Archives have been supplemented by two more recent donations (1998 and 2004) of additional photographs (contact sheets, prints, and slides) of the Newport Folk Festival, the Philadelphia Folk Festival, the Poor People's March on Washington, the Civil Rights Movement, the Georgia Sea Islands, and miscellaneous personalities of the American folk revival.

  • Catalogue of Photographs of Performers at the Embassy Theatre
    Catalogue of Photographs of Performers and Shows in the Archives of the Embassy Theatre Foundation The archives of the Embassy Theatre Foundation hold more than 3000 artifacts, including more than 600 photographs of vaudevillians inscribed to Bud Berger (long-time stage man- ager at the Embassy Theatre, known as the Emboyd until 1952); more than 300 posters, playbills, programs, stools, and even guitars signed by the stars and casts of shows that have played at the Embassy Theatre over the past forty years, rang- ing from classic and current Broadway shows to acrobatic groups, choral ensembles, dance shows, ballet, stand-up comedians, rock bands, country singers, travel films, silent films, theatre organists, and so on; and hundreds of publicity photographs of performers, shows, and events at the theatre, primarily from the period following the establishment of the Embassy Theatre Foundation and its rescue of the theatre from the wrecking ball in 1975; and a nearly complete run of the journal of the American Theatre Organ Society. The archive is now almost fully catalogued and preserved in archival housing. Earlier excerpts from the catalogue (available on the Archives page of the Embassy Theatre’s web site) cover the photographs inscribed to Bud Berger and the posters, playbills, programs, stools, and so on from later shows at the Embassy. This is the third excerpt, covering the public- ity photographs of the last forty-five years and a few photographs of earlier events, Bud Berger, and other members of the stage crew. The publicity photographs are primarily of individ- ual performers, but a few shows are presented as well, including Ain’t Misbehavin’, Annie, Barnum, Bubbling Brown Sugar, Cabaret, California Suite, Cats, A Christ- mas Carol, Dancin’, Evita, Gypsy, I'm Getting My Act Together And Taking It On The Road, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Peter Pan, Same Time Next Year, Side by Side by Sondheim, and Ziegfeld: A Night at the Follies.

  • Notes to Flyright LP 4705 "New York Country Blues"
    _ YORK COUNTRY BLUES Higration patterns showing movements of negroes from rural to urban settlements and from South to North and West have not only helped to interweave regional blues styles but have frequently concentrated artists from specific southern rural areas into certain ei ties . Obvious routes 11e westwards from Texas and the Southwest into California; from the Deep South of the Mississippi bottomlands and Alabama to Chicago _ perhaps the hest documented of all - and from the southeastern states to New York. :lUl selections on this anthology typify the general drift from rural southern communi ties into the New York metropolis. Sometimes the rural roots are more in evidence but nowhere are the compldte urban influences which dominated the blues in the e1 ty by the 1960s. These sides from the 1940s and 19508 show the breadth and wealth of musical talent in this city of supposed greater opportunity in the immediate postwar years - and the bulk reflect the gentle, lH ting sounds of the southeastorn states. Some of the artists had moved into the city some time before they r ocorded there. Alec Seward has made his home there since 1 924, although his first journoy to the city was in 1922. From Newport News, Virginia, Seward recalls many fine artists from the Chesapeake Bay area (none of whom have ever been recorded) yet it waB with the rougher­ voiced Louis &yes, a guitarist from North Carolina, that he teamed up in 1947. Their two-guitar sides epitomise the relaxed and deceptively languid blues style of the Piedmont, issued as the Back Porch Boys, this pseudonym was merely one of many colourful ones that were used on their releases.

  • American Folk Music:The Golden Age, 1950–75 Thursdays, August 6 – September 24, 2020 on Zoom with Rhythmix Cultural Works Instructor: Peter Elman
    American Folk Music:The Golden Age, 1950–75 Thursdays, August 6 – September 24, 2020 On Zoom with Rhythmix Cultural Works Instructor: Peter Elman "Folk music--a bellwether for us in these days of reckoning." The folk music that emerged in the 1950's has lasted 70 years and will last a lot longer. Why? Because of the confluence of people, politics, philosophy and social awareness that came out of the post-war era which ushered in a new age of enlightenment. This course will examine the soundtrack of that period and how folk music became associated with, aligned with and drove social protest movements while being integrated into the larger world of popular music. Starring: Leadbelly, Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, Odetta, Harry Belafonte, Kingston Trio, Barbara Dane, Bob Dylan, Fred Neil, Tim Hardin, Tim Buckley, Judy Collins, Joan Baez, Peter, Paul and Mary, Tom Rush, Phil Ochs, Dave Van Ronk, Ian and Sylvia, Gordon Lightfoot, Leonard Cohen, Neil Young, John Stewart and others. * * * * This course could not be more relevant or timely. Our country is at a crossroads. The devastation of the pandemic and the accompanying economic meltdown have only served to highlight a much deeper problem; namely, the issue of race and inequality in our society. Somehow we have yet to come to terms with our 400-year-old twin original sins: the displacement of native peoples and the enslavement and disenfranchisement of African-Americans. Folk music has been there all along to play a role in the consciousness of Americans. As great as it is to be entertained and enriched by music, sometimes it must serve as more.

  • “Covering” the Bluesman from a Distance
    Introduction In many ways, my journey towards this thesis topic began with my brother’s music collection. Throughout my teens he would introduce me to a wide range of local and international acts, many of which were influenced by African-American blues artists. This influence is evident in both their construction of sound and the old songs that they rerecorded. From there I began tracing musical influences from song credits and interview excerpts—a path often travelled by musicians and fans alike—that would eventually lead me to an appreciation of blues music. The penultimate step towards this topic came in the form of my honours thesis—a creative project that involved rerecording several tracks from the catalogue of an early Australian country music artist, one of which was titled “Blue Mountain Blues”.1 From there I turned to blues music in Australia. Initially conceived as a history of “Australian blues”, it became apparent that this proposed sub-genre struggled to unify and explain the disparate musical styles contained therein. Although each artist was clearly addressing the musical characteristics and influences I had come to recognise as “blues music”, it all sounded different. In the meantime, I developed a keen interest in a fellow colleague’s thesis topic that addressed the role of “covers” within the Australian music industry (Giuffre, 2005). My epiphany—and catalyst for the current thesis topic—eventually presented itself while viewing a live performance from Peter Green Splinter Group. The concert was split into two courses: an acoustic entrée featuring several Robert Johnson “covers”; and, an electric main with side dishes of early Fleetwood Mac material—the band Green had help found many years ago.
