To evaluate almost a century of blues recordings and narrow it down to thirty albums takes much thought. First and foremost, you must include recordings that were important for their wide influence. Early Delta musicians like Charlie Patton and Son House influenced Howlin’ Wolf and Muddy Waters, respectively, who themselves started in the Delta and [...]

With no time for acclimatization, we are putting our winter boots away in the basement (for the third time this spring) and slapping on the sunblock.

Sure came in handy this year for Old Settler’s Music Festival in Driftwood (Austin), Texas, where there was driving rain, freezing cold (at least it felt that way), and warm, late-spring sunshine. Oh, and lots of good music, which [...]

Your birthday today: You are ambitious, but can be easily discouraged. You give up too easily where you might accomplish great things. You are kind, just, generous and have an artistic temperament. Cultivate perseverance and confidence in your ability. You are fond of children. So, it would seem, is Cheryl Ann Cottrell B.1947, and these other persons of note seem to have persevered, until they succeeded:...
I mentioned in last week's post about Torchwood that I would miss the first episode because I would be at the Sundance Film Festival, and promised more information this week. I'm going out to the Festival to support a new...
