I'd bring a half pint of whiskey and a guitar and we'd jam and chat for hours. His skills were already in decline by then but he was a man of great wit and wisdom. Surprised to learn he was 're-discovered' in the 90s. He was well known to local blues musos and fans way before.Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17081699945373104280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5564093350797322784.post-59610017037008111302019-11-20T12:59:49.673+01:002019-11-20T12:59:49.673+01:00Many thanks, XyrosMany thanks, Xyrosjorgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17403127900636752642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5564093350797322784.post-18482754244443049352019-11-19T23:04:46.721+01:002019-11-19T23:04:46.721+01:00I'm looking for a new link.Many thanksI'm looking for a new link.Many thanksjorgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17403127900636752642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5564093350797322784.post-8912829263919104022018-05-06T12:22:15.616+02:002018-05-06T12:22:15.616+02:00@albert

Those recordings are certainly not technically perfect but because it was made on the field, at the bluesman's home, there are much more guts, flesh and blood in it. I had the opportunity to be with Kip on one of his field trip around Memphis and I can testify how difficult it was to gain confidence of the people and convince them to record... We should be grateful that people like Lornell, Evans and others did this field researches and recordings because without them hundreds of country bluesmen would never have been recorded...Gerard Herzhafthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02847006282160108348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5564093350797322784.post-78148102177992502112014-08-14T11:47:07.271+02:002014-08-14T11:47:07.271+02:00I gave the track a good listen and I can hear what...I gave the track a good listen and I can hear what you mentioned.

If you listen to the quieter parts you can hear in the background a pre-figuration of the louder parts which follow. It is less noticeable on the piano accompanied pieces, but you can still pick it up. This is typical of tape print through. slipryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08551737361288049859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5564093350797322784.post-67851127131035440182014-08-13T17:11:02.615+02:002014-08-13T17:11:02.615+02:00My ears aren't to good anymore but could you g...My ears aren't to good anymore but could you give name 1 track for me to listen to?<br />Xyroshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17951807869475591637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5564093350797322784.post-42591042999522836442014-08-13T15:52:17.333+02:002014-08-13T15:52:17.333+02:00On second thoughts it seems the actual cause is li...On second thoughts it seems the actual cause is likely to be tape print through.slipryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08551737361288049859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5564093350797322784.post-42296828516437299912014-08-13T08:09:34.819+02:002014-08-13T08:09:34.819+02:00Very interesting, but marred by bad pre-echo which...Very interesting, but marred by bad pre-echo which detracts somewhat from my enjoymentslipryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08551737361288049859noreply@blogger.com
