Hello again blues friends,
Here we are again with some amazing stuff. I've just seen the DVD… Wow, in one word, fantastic! Marvelous images and what a music! Pure history. This DVD contains footage from 1963, one years before I was born ;-)
Released late in December so hot from the shelf!
Anyway, below you will find a sample movie. Words are not necessary I think. Take a whiskey, sit back and let this piece of history come over you.
Enjoy folks.
U.S. BLUES TOUR ‘63Featuring: Victoria Spivey, Muddy Waters, Sonny Boy Williamson, Otis Spann, Matt ‘Guitar’ Murphy, Big Joe Williams, Lonnie Johnson, Willie Dixon, Memphis Slim and Billy Stepney.
The 1960’s European tours by American Blues artists were legendary. They introduced a music that had only been previously available on hard to find discs to a new generation of young people and changed the face of our popular music forever.
Diehard blues fans at last got the chance to see their idols in the flesh and for those who weren’t able attend the concerts, many of them were documented on film. The very rare footage on this DVD includes artists who were playing in the early days of the music as well as masters of the Chicago Blues. Due to age, this material contains a few minor visual glitches; the audio is excellent however and nothing distracts from these inspiring and important performances.
Bonus material: Three audio tracks from Victoria Spivey, Lonnie Johnson and Big Joe Williams plus images and biographies.
