Blues To You

When the American Version of Are You Experienced? hit the record racks in September of 1967, it was like a tidal shock wave, a conflagration that would wash over the world of music, leaving it forever changed. I remember sitting in a friend's parents' living room (his folks were out of the house, of course) with the sound turned way up, and my ears blitzed by the torrents of sheer power that blazed through the speakers. This was a true mind - bending experience back then, no doubt the desired effect put there by the author of its sound and concept.

Though his electric slide guitar lick on "Dust My Broom" is Elmore James' biggest claim to farne, Elmore, like Muddy Waters, was more than an intluential slide guitarist. He was one of the first to electrify and urbanize Delta blues. As early as 1939, before Muddy made his first recordings for the Ubrary of Congress, Elmore's fuli electric band, with drums and horns, was playing Delta cIubs, dances and theatres. Although he died in '63, Elmore's hard-rocking style captured the attention of u.s. and British rockers such as Fleetwood Mac, Johnny Winter, George Thorogood, Eric CIapton, Paul Butterfield's Blues Band and the Allrnan Brothers, all of whom recorded his tunes. The Beatles mentioned hirn in their slide guitar tune "For You Blue," and the AIlrnan band played "The Sky Is Crying" at Duane Allman 's funeral.Full transcriptions and lessons to 16 classic tunes, including: Dust My Broom • The Sky Is Crying • Early One Morning • and more.
