Field recorder Ralph Peer was een belangrijke schakel in de heropleving van de Blues op het platteland aan het eind van de jaren twintig. Ralph Peer had een neus voor talent: met de opnames van de Carter Family en Jimmie Rodgers had hij de lont aangestoken voor de "Big Bang of Country Music", en ook na 1924 bleef hij samen met heel wat artiesten bluesgeschiedenis schrijven. In deze aflevering blijven we nog even het pad van Ralph Peer volgen. Ik stel je graag voor aan Sleepy John Estes, Blind Willie McTell, Frank Stokes en Furry Lewis! Nieuwsgierig naar meer?

On his third album, as on his previous recordings, Ry Cooder presents the result of a musical treasure hunt that is also a journey through time. Boomer's Story (1972) looks to masters like Sleepy John Estes and Skip James, but also to younger, lost and neglected pieces of American folk and blues. Episode 6 of the podcast also introduces many Cooder sessions from 1972-73.This podcast frequently uses small snippets of musical recordings in podcast episodes for educational, review, and commentary purposes.

הלילה - 5 ביוני - בין יתר המאורעות הגדולים שקרו ביום זה, הרי מציין הוא 46 שנים למותו של אחד הגדולים והקדמונים שבאסכּולה - סליפּי ג'ון אֶסטֶס. הוא נולד בשנה האחרונה של המאה ה19, למרות שישנן גם גרסאות אחרות. נחשב לחוליה חשובה ועתיקה בשלשלת המסירה של תורת הבלוז הכפרית.כונה "סליפּי" בשם יכולתו יוצאת הדופן לנמנם עמוקות גם כאשר כל העולם הומה סביבו. בהופעות, בעמידה ותוך כדי שיחה. בּיג בּיל בּרונזי הגדול ייחד את קולו של אסטס בין המשוררים המרכזיים של האסכולה והדגיש את מלוא הרגש הבוקע מגרונו. גם כאשר היה שבע ימים וקרוב להיאסף אל האבות והאמהות שר אסטס כאילו הגיח משנות ה20 וכאילו היה עדיין מנהיג קבוצת העובדים המתווה את הקצב בשירתו, בעוד הוא וחבריו מניחים פסי רכבת מבלי קץ. תפקיד שאכן מילא בצעירותו.לכבוד יום זה הוצאנו מן הארכיון תקליט נדיר ביותר שהוקלט ב1968 והינו יוצא מן הכלל שאינו מעיד על שאר מרכולת ההקלטות של אסטס. הוא נקרא "שינה חשמלית" Electric Sleep והוא כל כולו על טהרת המגבּרים והכבּלים.הוקלט בשיקגו יחד עם חברים טובים שכל אחד מהם היה כוכב בפני עצמו. > הלילה ב22:00 בגל"צ. שינה חשמלית לזכרו ועיון מעמיק בתקליט לזכרו של סליפּי ג'ון.
It was April 1927 when a pair of blues singers from Mississippi named Little Harvey Hull and Long Cleve Reed walked into a Chicago studio to record the first of a half dozen tunes they'd leave there over the next few weeks.Joining them for the session was guitarist Sunny Wilson, whose song "Hey! Lawdy Mama/France Blues" was among their first. The trio was billed on the label as “The Down Home Boys” when the disc was released the following month by Black Patti Records, a new short-lived company created by a fascinating historical character named J. Mayo “Ink” Williams.Ink WilliamsA Brown University graduate, Ink Williams is the only man we know of who was inducted into both the National Football Hall of Fame and the Blues Hall of Fame. Besides being one of the first African American pro-football players (as part of a Chicago team in the first season of the NFL), Williams also is remembered as an important recording industry pioneer.Starting his career producing for the fledgling Paramount Records, Williams earned his nickname because of his persuasive way of inking contracts with a wide range of original talent. Over the years, he was to work with Blind Lemon Jefferson and Ma Rainey, with Tampa Red and Georgia Tom, with Blind Blake and Ida Cox (not to mention Jelly Roll Morton, King Oliver, Mahalia Jackson, Alberta Hunter, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Roosevelt Sykes, Sleepy John Estes and so many more). In 1924, Williams also earned an early entry in blues annals by producing the legendary Papa Charlie Jackson's “Lawdy, Lawdy Blues,” the first successful blues record made by an African American man.In 1927, Williams left Paramount to go out on his own by starting Black Patti Records, named after the opera singer Matilda Sissieretta Joyner Jones, who was called “Black Patti” because some thought she resembled the Italian opera singer Adelina Patti. While Williams' label lasted only seven months, it produced 55 records in a variety of styles, including blues, jazz and spirituals, as well as hell-fire sermons by “straining preachers” and comedy routines and popular ditties from vaudeville stars. When the enterprise was not immediately profitable, Williams moved on to greener pastures by the end of 1927, but not before discovering a few stand-out blues acts that had moved to Chicago from the South as part of “The Great Migration.”Among his finds in those early days was The Down Home Boys, whose two-guitar accompaniment was a blend of parlor guitar and ragtime. The trio sang blues, but much of its repertoire was from the turn of the century — before blues had become a dominant musical genre — and included ballads and medicine show material.Back to the SongSunny Wilson's “Hey! Mama” tune didn't have the same cachet of some of the group's other numbers — notably the guys' “Original Stack O'Lee Blues,” which probably was a response to Ma Rainey's version of the number, which had the young Louis Armstrong on cornet — but it did have a long shelf life. For instance, right after its Black Patti debut, it was brought out as "France Blues" on Gennett (credited to "Sunny Boy & His Pals") and again on Champion by "The Original Louisiana Entertainers.”Then 40 years later, the song was reborn in the folk revival of the 1960s. The Flood learned the song from the January 1964 album recorded by Stefan Grossman and Peter Siegel's Even Dozen Jug Band. This seminal ‘60s group also featured John Sebastian, Steve Katz, David Grisman and Maria Muldaur, all friends who got to know each other during legendary jam sessions in New York's Washington Square Park.Later that same year, the song made another notable folk revival appearance, this time performed by Mark Spoelstra (with Fritz Richmond on washtub bass and Doug Pomeroy on washboard and kazoo) on a landmark Elektra album called The Blues Project. Our Take on the TuneIf you hang out much with The Flood, it seems like everything we do is carefully planned …. uh, right… but actually, accident and happenstance are a couple of our good friends. Earlier this week, for example, we got together to plan for our show tonight at Sal's Speakeasy. As you'll hear in this track, between songs Charlie starts singing a bit of this old 1920s song. Immediately, Randy jumps in with some great harmony. Then Sam brightens it up with his harmonica and Danny puts a bow on the whole thing with a cookin' guitar part. And just like that the tune has inserted itself into the set list. All that's missing now is you. Come on down to Sal's Italian Eatery & Speakeasy tonight, 1624 Carter Avenue in beautiful downtown Ashland, Ky., and we'll getting you singing along on that hey-lawdy-mama-mama / hey-lawdy-papa-papa part! We play from 6 to 9. Come on out and party with us. This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit 1937flood.substack.com

Ann Charters, better known as Jack Kerouac's biographer and witness-historian of the Beats, also saw firsthand the making of The Country Blues, published by her late husband Samuel Charters in 1959. Though other writers had touched on blues history, none had the impact of Charters and The Country Blues, which launched the so-called 'blues revival' (a term I hate, but is what is). Ann comfortably weaves Kerouac, Blind Willie Johnson, and Vladimir Horowitz into the discussion, while sharing unique firsthand perspective of an iconic work of history and people like Sleepy John Estes who helped make it happen. You'll be pleasantly surprised to learn who encouraged Sam to write The Country Blues.

The community of Brownsville, Tennessee lies about 60 miles or so just East of Memphis, just a short ways off of Highway 40, the long interstate that runs the entire width of Tennessee from North Carolina’s Great Smoky Mountains to the Mississippi River. Brownsville, whose population was roughly ten thousand at the last census, has recently come to recognize two of its most accomplished offspring. Located in the former Flagg Grove School, once a one-room schoolhouse for “colored” children, is the Tina Turner Museum. Immediately nextdoor, and also maintained as a public attraction, is the tiny home, a cottage or really a shack, once lived in by Brownsville’s other great artist, the blues singer Sleepy John Estes. Both Estes and Turner, by the way, actually grew up in Ripley aka./Nutbush, an unincorporated community adjacent to Brownsville once populated almost exclusively by black residents. At the time of Tina Turner’s birth in 1939, Sleep John, born either in 1899 or 1900-no one’s really sure, was already in the middle of a recording and performing career that extended from 1929 right up to his death in 1977. As a child in Ripley/Nutbush, John, like so many bluesmen before and after him, helped out on his family’s share-crop cotton farm and tried to pick out tunes on a homemade cigar box guitar. After a particularly productive season his mother awarded John for his hard work on the farm by buying him a real guitar. For the first decade or so of his musical career, John, along with his “Brownsville Gang” which included harmonica player Hammie Nixon, mandolinist Yank Rachell, jug and piano player Jab Jones, and guitarists Son Bonds and Charlie Pickett, performed and traveled throughout the Western Tennesssee area often performing in Memphis. In 1929 Victor Records talent scout Ralph Peer arranged for John’s first recording session, a three-day affair, which produced one of his most well known songs Diving Duck Blues as well as five others. Legend has it that the gang followed the sessions with a week long binge of drinking, gambling and whoring in West Memphis, the wide-open mostly black community located just across the river from Memphis proper. The following year, 1930 saw John and his gang recording another fourteen songs. John, it seemed, was a highly prolific songwriter. Three things distinguish the music of Sleepy John Estes. First, was his guitar playing. It wasn’t very good. Many have described his playing as “thrashing”. But while John certainly wasn’t in a class with virtuosos like Blind Blake or Big Bill Broonzy, his playing did have a strong propulsive quality that served his music well. He usually played in standard tuning in the key of G, or in G position with a capo. Second, was his “crying” vocal style that made him sound like an old man long before he was one. The final quality that sets his music apart and was his songwriting; his ability to craft a musical story. While many of John’s songs concern the usual blues subject matter, ie whiskey and women, John was also a chronicler of people and events around him. He wrote about people he knew, people he worked for, people he dealt with and people he admired. In Liquor Store Blues John sings his admiration for the man he buys hootch from: Now if you're ever in Forrest City, I'll tell you what to doLet Mr. Peter Adams get acquainted with youWell, you won't have to go, well, you won't have to goYou can get what you want, oh, right here in my liquor store In Brownsville Blues, John sings the praises of local mechanic Vassar Williams: Now, he can straighten your wiSupport the show (https://paypal.me/BFrank53?locale.x=en_US)

Led Zeppelin lead singer, Robert Plant, named him as one of his earliest influences. This is episode 16 of Caffe Lena : 60 Years of Song. Thank you to Sarah at the Caffe for compiling the list of artists and songs for this feature. Sleepy John Estes, with his distinctive "crying" vocal style found his way to Caffe Lena just a few years before his death in 1977 . Interestingly, in the 1960's, many blues revivalists thought him long dead in part because he sounded very old, even in his early recordings. Sleepy John's songs were about the people and places in his hometown of Brownsville, Tennessee. As blues went out of style, Sleepy John found himself thinking his career was over at 53 when he returned to Brownsville to live in poverty. Ten years later, he was back in the studio recording, and out playing to new devotees of folk blues on the university circuit. He played at Newport, and toured Europe before finally making his way to Saratoga Springs. At just 24 years old, recent Caffe
