Roger Stolles describes to Steve Bowers how you begin life in Ohio and end up in Clarksdale, Mississippi in this July 28, 2021 interview on Blue Suede Forever ..
The ladies smoke Northern Lights, a classic Indica that lights up the night sky! The conservative Supreme Court majority will finally get to shine this fall as they take on two landmarks cases involving abortion rights and guns. One restricts access to something, and the other calls for a ban on restrictions. CAN YOU GUESS WHICH ONE IS WHICH? We're assuming...you got it right. A Mississippi law that bans abortions after 15 weeks threatens Roe v. Wade, as well as a challenge to an NY law that requires a license to carry a concealed gun outside the home. Mississippi also coming in clutch with an outdated view on cannabis. Is our Kook actually reasonable about something? Did our Queen enjoy fox news? Did Tianna and Sam apply the same reality show?
In this episode of jack Dappa Blues Radio, I speak with Brother Christone Ingram, better known as King Fish. Clarksdale, Mississippi Blues legend in the making! King Fish discusses the culture, history, and meaning of the blues as it relates to fans, the industry, musicians, and the Black Community! Once a generation, an artist comes along who not only reminds mainstream audiences how deeply satisfying and emotionally moving the best blues music can be but shakes the genre to its core. With both eyes on the future and the blues in his blood, 21-year-old guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter Christone “Kingfish” Ingram continue to take the music world by storm after his 2019 release of his debut album, KINGFISH. Sprung from the same earth as so many of the Delta blues masters, Kingfish comes bursting out of Clarksdale, Mississippi, just ten miles from the legendary crossroads of Highways 61 and 49. A student of the Delta’s musical history, he is acutely aware of the musicians and the music that emerged from his corner of the world. “I do think I have an old soul, that I’ve been here before,” he says. “I’m moving forward with one foot in the past.” "Is Christone "Kingfish" Ingram the future of the blues? The blues savior is one of the most exciting young guitarists in years, with a sound that encompasses B.B. King, Jimi Hendrix & Prince." —Rolling Stone “You don’t see too many kids into blues music,” says the nascent star. “In my town, every kid wants to be a rapper – I wanted to do something no one else was doing.” And although he grew up near the crossroads where Robert Johnson allegedly cut a deal with the devil, Kingfish insists he didn’t do any of that to make his guitar howl the blues. “I just practice all the time,” he says, “that’s the only deal I made, and it’s with myself.” To learn more about KING FISH read here: https://www.christonekingfishingram.com/bio For our health and wellness collection https://lamontjackpearley.itworks.com/ https://denisepearley.itworks.com/ To Donate to The African American Folklorist Newspaper Campaign https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/the-african-american-folklorist-newspaper#/ To Register for our Black Folk Narrative Crowdfunding Concert https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-african-american-folklorist-newspaper-fundraising-concert-tickets-141364217179 --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackdappabluespodcast/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jackdappabluespodcast/support

Two opposing elements form the framework of the White Stripes, it's what makes them unique, strange, and so interesting. Jack and Meg White shroud themselves with mystery in their personal lives and they embrace cheap gimmicks such as a colour code, but the music they play harkens back to old Mississippi Blues from the 1930's with a Iggy and The Stooges 70's garage rock twist. The White Stripes are that simple in their music, and that complicated and mysterious with everything else. It’s easy to point to their 2003 release of Elephant as the White Stripes best work because it has their biggest hit, Seven Nation Army on it, but the album is much more than that. Elephant saw a maturity in the band and the songwriting, more than the minimalistic rock sound of White Blood Cells, and more than the polish pop twist to their blues rock sound on De Stijl and their debut self-titled album. Who knew blues-tinged rock & roll scaled back to its most essential elements — one guitar, a simple drum kit and sneering vocals, could top the charts in the early 2000's. But as Jack says, "The whole point of the White Stripes is the liberation of limiting yourself." The limitation of being a two piece rock band and analog recording in a pro-tools world was against the grain and off the beaten path. But Jack and Meg never took the easy route, and that’s why they and their works like Elephant will be in the rock pantheon with their heroes.
The Rock n Roll Archaeologist gets to talk extensively with Mick Jones of Foreigner. This is Mick's first interview since the Covid-19 pandemic took all acts off the road. We talk a little about that, but mostly it is a deep dig into his life as a working musician climbing the ranks until hitting it big with one of the best selling classic rock acts ever.The architect behind Foreigner's extraordinary catalogue of smash hits, Mick has crafted some of rock music's most enduring songs and produced 10 multi-platinum albums. Grammy and Golden Globe nominated songwriter, performer and producer and winner of the prestigious Ivor Novello songwriter award in Britain in 1998, Mick first began playing guitar in his early teens. "I knew early on that I could never hold a regular job. I had to play guitar. I had to somehow make my way into music" he says.After starting his own Blues/Rock band and opening for the Rolling Stones in pubs across South London, Mick's first big break came in 1964 when he moved to Paris and was hired to play with French singer Sylvie Vartan and later hired to work as musical director for French rock icon, Johnny Hallyday. Jones returned to his native England in the early 70's to reform the band Spooky Tooth with Gary Wright. After Spooky Tooth broke up, Mick moved to New York City and, in 1976, formed Foreigner with fellow Brits Ian Mc Donald and Dennis Elliott, and Americans Lou Gramm, Alan Greenwood and Ed Gagliardi.In his own words:"My initial musical vision for Foreigner was to combine Blues and R&B with British Rock and make it sound soulful and authentic. I?d grown up in England and had the English influence but I was also inspired by many elements of American music, from Mississippi Blues to Country and Western. Foreigner was the vehicle to get that musical blend across.""I'm grateful to be surrounded by the talented musicians that make up Foreigner today. Now each night on stage brings Foreigner's music alive with energy and excitement. Thanks guys for making it all new again!"Quotes from Mick talking about Foreigner and the new "Feels Like The First Time" 3-Disc Album:"When doing the ‘Hot Blooded' solo I did my damnedest to set the amp on fire, which is what originally happened," Mick says laughing, "I turned it up to 11, I kicked it. . . ""My feeling over the years is that if you can write a song on an acoustic instrument, and it sounds good, you know you have a good song," Mick explains. "The first time we approached these songs this way I was flabbergasted about how well they adapted back to their nucleus. It's been an eye opener how stripping the songs bare brings fresh meaning and emotion out of them. The reaction has been so strong that it made me rethink the whole thing and put more attention to the unplugged show. People feel the intimacy, I talk about the songs and how they came about.""It's' been 6 years since the new line-up has been in place. The success, for me, merited giving the public studio recordings of songs by the new band," Mick Jones asserts. "People know the new Foreigner, so the Foreigner they see live is the same Foreigner they can get on record."https://www.foreigneronline.com/welcomehttps://www.amazon.com/Foreigners-Tale-Mick-Jones/dp/1910978167/ref=sr_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=mick+jones&qid=1589822628&sr=8-4 (edited)

Der in Texas geborene Johnny Winter gilt als einer der besten Gitarristen aller Zeiten und als herausragender Bluesmusiker der zweiten Generation. Die Live-Aufnahme seines „Leland Mississippi Blues" aus dem Jahr 1969 vom legendären Woodstock-Festival wurde erst 40 Jahre später veröffentlicht.
The Virginia-based band Buck Gooter is a duo comprised of a 33 year old (Billy Brett) and a 67 year old (Terry Turtle). On stage they are known for punishing shows where they bang chains around, break things and yell. Their music is hard to categorize - its influences include everything from Nine Inch Nails to Mississippi Blues. We were lucky enough to sit down with them at the LINE Austin during SXSW 2019 to hear more about their formation and idiosyncratic dynamic.

Welcome to the Memphis Travel Guide Part OneOn the bluffs overlooking the Mississippi River, Memphis is Tennessee's largest city and home to the historic birthplace of blues, barbecue, and rock ‘n’ roll. Memphis just doesn't attract tourists, it creates pilgrimages from all over the world.You will often find tourists stating they are on their third, 10th or even 100th visit to Memphis and who can blame them? – fantastic BBQ pulled pork, spicy dry rubbed ribs, exceptional live blues entertainment, often free, and the home of the king of rock n roll himself – The big E. --- Elvis Presley.And as much as Memphis is about Elvis, there is a lot more going on there culturally and historically that can be explored. Don't worry, we'll cover the Elvis attractions, but we will also go more in depth in a special episode giving you tips and information on visiting Graceland.One of the great things about Memphis is that it is relatively affordable to visit if you know when and where to go. In these next few episodes we will cover tourist attractions, where to stay and where to eat. We'll also give tips on how to stay on budget, and ideas for families and solo travelers.Let's start off with some recommended attractions. Even though Memphis is a large city, there are a great number of attractions situated in relatively small geographical location making it easy to see and do a lot of things in a short amount of time. One of the biggest draws to Memphis is because of its rich history in music so let's start here.Depending on when you arrive in Memphis the first stop on anyone's list should be historic Beale Street and the home of the blues. The main drag is lined up and down for several blocks of blues joints, honkytonks, great restaurants bars and tourists shops. In the evening, almost every venue hosts free live music, from Mississippi Blues to Jerry Lee Lewis tribute bands. Also at dusk, the lights turn on to the many wonderfully designed neon lights and makes for iconic photos. Drinks and food are priced moderately, even though this is a top tourist attraction. We recommend the Beale Street Tap Room and The King's Palace Restaurant where not only you can get a good beer but also some great BBQ including ribs, Voodoo Chicken and Cajun Faire.Now a lot of the action may be happening inside, but there is a lot going on outside. Street performers, acrobats and magicians sometimes perform down the main strip to the delight of onlookers. Handy Park, is usually a great place to listen to a blues band or solo artist, while enjoying the historical significance of the park.Even though Beale St. Is lined wall to wall with drinks and individuals drinking walking down the street, it is totally safe. The Memphis police department controls the entranceway's into the thoroughfare and actively patrol the street keeping everyone in check. Police monitor those underage as well and anyone under 21 is not permitted on Beale Street after 10pm – when things get a little wilder.Now if you prefer it a little slower, you can go during the day or into the evening and still enjoy Beale Street, especially if you enjoy visiting museums and historic attractions.WC Handy is considered to be the "Father of the Blues" and is one of America's most influential songwriters ever and you can take a tour of WC Handy's humble beginnings at his turn-of-the-century home on Beale Street. Admission is $6 but be aware they run a limited schedule of Tues-Sat from 10-5 in the summer months and 11-4pm in the winter months. You can find the museum at the corner of Beale St. And 4th.Another great museum to learn about Memphis' Music past is the RocknSoul Museum. The Memphis Rock ‘n’ Soul Museum is at the corner of historic Beale Street, and legendary Highway 61 (Third Street), also known as the “Blues Highway”. The museum is located on the plaza of the FedExForum, Memphis’ premier sports and entertainment complex, and home to blockbuster concerts and the NBA Memphis Grizzlies. The museum tells tells the story of musical pioneers who, for the love of music, overcame racial and socio-economic barriers to create the music that shook the entire world. The museum offers a comprehensive Memphis music experience from the rural field hollers and sharecroppers of the 1930s, through the explosion of Sun, Stax and Hi Records and Memphis’ musical heyday in the 70s, to its global musical influence. The museum’s digital audio tour guide is packed with over 300 minutes of information, including over 100 songs, and takes visitors at their own pace through seven galleries featuring 3 audio visual programs, more than 30 instruments, 40 costumes and other musical treasures. The museum is open daily, 9:30 a.m. - 7 p.m. Admission is $12.50 for adults, $9.50 for youth age 5-17.Getting to Beale Street is pretty easy from anywhere in Memphis. Good Parking, however, can quickly fill up. But the good news is that Memphis has the lowest parking rates in the United States. There are 12 main lots near Beale Street and a number of smaller lots. Prices range from $10 to $20 per day, depending on distance and security.But, here is an inside tip. There is a lot located at 110 Peabody Place, between Main St. And 2nd St. South that offers an incredibly low rate of only $3.On our next episode we'll continue our guide with stops at Sun Records, The Stax Museum of Soul Music, The National Civil Rights Museum and some other fantastic locations.

The architect behind Foreigner's extraordinary catalogue of smash hits, Mick has crafted some of rock music's most enduring songs and produced 10 multi-platinum albums. Grammy and Golden Globe nominated songwriter, performer and producer and winner of the prestigious Ivor Novello songwriter award in Britain in 1998, Mick first began playing guitar in his early teens. "I knew early on that I could never hold a regular job. I had to play guitar. I had to somehow make my way into music" he says. After starting his own Blues/Rock band and opening for the Rolling Stones in pubs across South London, Mick's first big break came in 1964 when he moved to Paris and was hired to play with French singer Sylvie Vartan and later hired to work as musical director for French rock icon, Johnny Hallyday. Jones returned to his native England in the early 70's to reform the band Spooky Tooth with Gary Wright. After Spooky Tooth broke up, Mick moved to New York City and, in 1976, formed Foreigner with fellow Brits Ian Mc Donald and Dennis Elliott, and Americans Lou Gramm, Alan Greenwood and Ed Gagliardi. In his own words: "My initial musical vision for Foreigner was to combine Blues and R&B with British Rock and make it sound soulful and authentic. I?d grown up in England and had the English influence but I was also inspired by many elements of American music, from Mississippi Blues to Country and Western. Foreigner was the vehicle to get that musical blend across." "I'm grateful to be surrounded by the talented musicians that make up Foreigner today. Now each night on stage brings Foreigner's music alive with energy and excitement. Thanks guys for making it all new again!" Quotes from Mick talking about Foreigner and the new "Feels Like The First Time" 3-Disc Album: "When doing the ‘Hot Blooded' solo I did my damnedest to set the amp on fire, which is what originally happened," Mick says laughing, "I turned it up to 11, I kicked it. . . " "My feeling over the years is that if you can write a song on an acoustic instrument, and it sounds good, you know you have a good song," Mick explains. "The first time we approached these songs this way I was flabbergasted about how well they adapted back to their nucleus. It's been an eye opener how stripping the songs bare brings fresh meaning and emotion out of them. The reaction has been so strong that it made me rethink the whole thing and put more attention to the unplugged show. People feel the intimacy, I talk about the songs and how they came about." "Its' been 6 years since the new line-up has been in place. The success, for me, merited giving the public studio recordings of songs by the new band," Mick Jones asserts. "People know the new Foreigner, so the Foreigner they see live is the same Foreigner they can get on record." @ForeignerMusic @TheMickJones #JukeBoxHeroesTour #SlackerMorningShow101theFox #TMobile
Musik, film och litteratur rymmer många poetiska beskrivningar av Amerikas mest plågade stat och dess delta, vilket bidragit till en rik mytbildning och romantisering kring södern. Ett landskap både fridfullt och hotande. Förfallna lador, slingerväxter kring el- och teleledningar, bilvrak i ett annars orört landskap där traktorer segar sig fram över fältet i soldiset. Brinnande kors, lynchningar och rasmord. Bilder av feta fälgar som kompenserar tomma själar. Big K R I T berättar en annan historia från Mississippi. En modern sådan, och utmanar samtidigt föreställningarna om vad som definierar en södernrappare idag. Jhene Aiko bidrog till ett reningsbad för R&B. Hon förvandlade luft och något nästan viskandetill kraftfulla och på samma gång fjäderlätta frihetssånger. Texter som lät fristajlade la ett poetiskt pussel, och skapade ett behagligt lugn. Viktlös rymdsoul. Både Kritan och Jhene är aktuella med personliga dubbelalbum. 4eva is a mighty long time respektive Trip.

Hi I am Mijaelle and in this Heart -Beats video series we chat to Mike Meiring the founder, lead guitarist and singer for Highway Jam, a blues rock / jazz fusion band. He had reasonable success in Durban and Johannesburg in the 1980s as lead guitarist with popular Durban band The Street Rockers, with their song “Don’t cry without emotion” topping the Radio 5 charts in the late 1980’s. Mike performed in a show called “Déjà Vu”, a tribute to Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, after which Highway Jam was born. Highway Jam initially comprised drummer Steve De Kock and bassist Donovan Thatcher. The early ’90s saw the release of the band’s first album, “2 B Played Loud”. Apart from the club gigs, Highway Jam played at various festivals, including Rustlers, Splashy Fen and Oppie Koppie - until 1997, when the band broke up. Mike carried on under the Highway Jam banner with Kai Horsthemke and Reuben Samuels. This ushered in a creative, synergistic period, with funk, jazz and world music influences. In 1998, Highway Jam's “Grasslands” project was recorded and released followed by “Always Being” in 1999. By 2000, a stable line-up of Mike, Ekkie, Kai and drummer Brett Collings saw the band revisiting their eclectic mix of jazz and world music influences, leaning towards hip-hop grooves. Highway Jam was voted best jazz band, regionally and nationally, in the prestigious “Old Mutual Jazz Encounters”. In 2003, the band recorded another album, “Highway Jam Goes Wild”. Highway Jam collaborated with Kathy Raven, one of the band’s all-time favourite singers. Kai, Reuben and Mike released the album “The Road Less Travelled” in 2017. Topics discussed in part 2 are: 1 - The origins of the name Highway Jam 2 - Playing different genres opens you up to new audiences - Garage grunge to blues rock and jazz fusion 3 - Jazz fusion includes complex arrangements and requires technical proficiency. The grasslands album has songs with various time signatures 4 - Is it important to create emerging sounds and to be influenced by your environment. For example the birth of Delta Blues (from Mississippi Blues creating Chicago Blues) 5 - Songwriting can be a cathartic process like Bukka White's song Parchman Farm Blues - so have you had a tough experience that influenced you musically? 6 - Is it important to leave a listener with a positive feeling regardless of the genre or subject matter? 7 - Music for Music sake - being creative outside of the box and that has deeper meaning 8 - Was composing The Road Less Travelled a freeing experience? www.highwayjam.co.za www.facebook.com/HeartBeatsSA www.facebook.com/MusicalMuseDevelopment soundcloud.com/heartbeatssa iTunes - Heart-Beats SA Music Industry podcast Visit www.musicalmuse.co.za www.instagram.com/mijaelle twitter - @Mijaelle

Hoe het met dit gebied gaat en in het bijzonder met de Afro-Amerikaanse gemeenschap, bespreken we met onze vaste tafelgast Arjen van Veelen en historicus Zihni Özdil.
