It was on January 5, 2008 that highly- regarded harmonica sleuth Raoul Bhaneja and front man for the Maple Blues Award- winning blues band Raoul and The Big Time hosted a special tribute at the Silver Dollar Room celebrating the life of harmonica genius Little Walter. Everyone who witnessed that torrid night of super- charged Chicago blues has it etched in their memory. Numerous players from across Southern Ontario--and beyond-- beat a path to that stage to commemorate The Father Of Modern Blues Harmonica. Now that excitement is about to be duplicated Saturday May 1st at the Silver Dollar . It’s a double treat for blues fans - May 1st would have been Little Walter’s 80th birthday, Little Walter, the pioneer and undisputed master of the amplified harmonica in blues will be celebrated at the making it a natural occasion for a Blues all- Silver Dollar Room on Saturday, May 1st - what would have been his 80th birthday.

CD release party of that live January 5, 2008 Little Walter tribute show. It all got captured right in the heat of the moment. “Blue Midnight” is a stunning testament to the enduring spirit of Little Walter (see John Valenteyn’s CD review). A generous portion of the proceeds from sales of this CD will be donated to the TBS Blues In Schools Programme which benefits students and musicians alike. Little Walter Jacobs continues to have a profound influence; his technique is studied by both budding and experienced players. By running a harmonica through an amplifier Little Walter forever changed the sound of the Blues and helped invent Rock & Roll. Commemorating the Master is something that unites the entire harmonica fraternity, so when the 40th anniversary of his death coincided with the 50th anniversary of the Silver Dollar a celebration was in order. Raoul deserves a round of applause for helping ensure that evening was recorded for posterity, and for his tenacity in seeing that project through to fruition. Now he’ll be playing a leading role in organizing the May 1 festivities too. In Raoul’s words Little Walter’s significance was singular: “Little Walter has influenced almost every blues harmonica player since the 1940s and I thought it was time that Toronto took a moment to acknowledge and celebrate cont’d on page 6 MapleBlues April 2010 3 RACHELLE VAN Z ??

  • Blues Rock Star Joe Bonamassa Announces Highly Anticipated New Studio Album
    BLUES-ROCK STAR JOE BONAMASSA ANNOUNCES NEW SINGLE "TIME CLOCKS" TAKEN FROM HIS NEW STUDIO ALBUM 'TIME CLOCKS' TO BE RELEASED OCT 29 PRE-ORDER “TIME CLOCKS” https://smarturl.it/JoeB-MLG LISTEN TO THE “TIME CLOCKS” SINGLE HERE: https://smarturl.it/JoeBonamassa WATCH THE MUSIC VIDEO FOR “TIME CLOCKS” HERE: https://youtu.be/Z7116ryQV-I Guitar legend Joe Bonamassa today reveals his stunningly sweeping new single, "Time Clocks." This is the third song taken from his forthcoming brand-new studio album of the same name, released on October 29 via Provogue (Europe) and J&R Adventures (North America). Joe continues his soul-searching evolution on this beautifully poignant Bonamassa-Shirley penned song. At just over seven minutes long, it has all the epic musical grandeur of him at his most expressive and ambitious. With a heart on sleeve narrative weaving its way throughout, the rousing chorus rises to the heavens as he sings, "and the rain soaking through my coat, about to capsize my boat I push it along away from the docks, I was never a good puncher of time clocks." Backed with cascading vocals from Juanita Tippins and Prinnie Stevens, as well as the supreme musicianship of Anton Fig (Drums), Steve Mackey (Bass), Lachy Doley (Piano/Organ) and Kevin Shirley (Percussion), it has an aura of pure timelessness. The album was recorded in New York City and took Joe back to his early roots and rediscovers him at a newfound peak with an unparalleled Blues Rock prowess. Known as the man in the suit, loved by many as the ultimate guitar hero, and cited by critics as "the world's biggest blues guitarist" (Guitar World), somehow the music mastermind has found yet another layer of immense new artistry to share with his fans.
