Si Cranstoun Update

I love this guy! It is apparent from his and his brothers videos from Youtube, that they are a couple of street musicians. However, these guys have far more talent than the hacks on any version of American Idol! (OK, Taylor Hicks excluded:-) Every time I think that the upheaval in the music business, is killing great music. I see something like this and I think I can believe again! Those of you in England are lucky. Get to his upcoming shows!!!!!!!!

Here is the latest from Si

Si Cranstoun's Upbeat Party Night, Bromley, Friday 16th April 2010

Mud Morganfield: Walking Through The Park

Muddy Waters oldest son Mud Morganfield performing in England. Great clip!

Sister Rosetta Tharpe: Trouble In Mind

Here is another interesting clip from the railroad. From what I could learn from watching the video is that this concert took place in England. ( Perhaps that explains why they can't clap to the song:-) (BTW, to all my friends in England, that is just a joke:-) Very cool video, and I get the train and blues connection, but wow, could you picked a little better day and weather:-)

Speaking of weather things are getting bad around here in the great state of Iowa. Flooding is all over the place and they are saying heavy rains and severe weather are coming around tomorrow night. Not great news. However, the nice thing about this song, is that even if things are so bad that you are ready to lay your head down on the railroad tracks, to wait because the sun is going to shine once again. So lets all hang in there and see what tomorrow brings.

Blues At Northampton University England

I found an interesting press release about the University of Northampton's blues week. From August 5th through the 10th. I like the idea of an University having a blues week, or concert series. It is great for the music. For More Information Click HERE. The players who will perform next week from PressZoom.com

• Michael Baytop - 'Bones'

Hailing from Washington DC, Michael plays the 'bones' as a percussion instrument to sound like castanets and tap drums. He will be giving a 'bones' workshop, demonstrating rhythm techniques associated with various blues styles. He learned this instrument from Richard 'Mr Bones' Thomas, a master craftsman and regular fixture on the Washington DC music scene.

• Danny McCormack - Keyboards

Danny will be accompanying vocals classes on keyboards throughout Blues Week 2007. Currently playing with Roy Wood, Danny was born in London and now based in Birmingham. He started playing piano aged 12 and at 17, he joined King Pleasure and the Biscuit Boys. He has also played with Van Morrison and Bobby Parker amongst others.

• Stefan Grossman - Guitar

Stefan has recorded over 20 solo albums and started Kicking Mule Records in 1968, a label that showcased blues guitar. A true pioneer, his Stefan Grossman's Guitar Workshop and Vestapol Videos have set the standard for all of the teaching that takes place in blues workshops throughout the world.

• Ari Eisinger - Guitar

A guitarist and singer who plays blues from the early years of its development. The authenticity with which he recreates some of the best and instrumentally complex guitar music is unprecedented.

• Grant Dermody - Harmonica

A harmonica player known for his rich tone, tasteful solos and solid rhythmic playing, Grant Dermody is making a welcome return to Blues Week 2007 after his successful workshops last year.

• Dennis Gruenling - Harmonica

Dennis has been laying down some of the best blues and roots harmonica in the East Coast of America region for over a dozen years now. Dennis has been pulling in countless fans and numerous accolades from critics and musicians for his swinging, highly original harmonica sound and top-notch band.

• Michael Messer - Bottleneck Slide Guitar

Michael Messer is a slide guitar master. His obsessive appetite for knowledge of the art is virtually unequalled. To further reflect the esteem in which he is held, Newtone Strings in conjunction with National Reso-phonic Guitars have a Michael Messer brand specifically made for National guitars.

• Scott Ainsley - Bottleneck Slide Guitar

Scott has forty years studying and playing traditional music, visiting and documenting senior musicians in America's old-time banjo and fiddle music, blues and gospel traditions. He produced a teaching DVD on the guitar techniques of delta blues legend Robert Johnson, and a book on Johnson's music 'Robert Johnson/At The Crossroads' ( Hal Leonard, 1992 ).

Michael Roach, Founder of the European Blues Association and Director of Blues Week 2007, also hosts his own guitar and vocals masterclasses at the event. Firmly established within blues music circles, he has four solo acoustic CDs under his belt and has just released the highly acclaimed album I betcha!.

He is now known as a vocalist and leader of his own eight piece soul/rhythm and blues band.
