Living Blues: The Magazine of the African-American
Blues
Tradition continues to provide first- rate
blues music
journalism. Our current issue features New York-based
bluesman Michael Hill, a conversation with soul
blues artist
Lou Pride, and the social and artistic commentary
of Mighty
Mo Rodgers. Record reviews, a remembrance about
an
encounter with bluesman Bo Carter, and an exclusive
excerpt
from James Segreat and Mark Hoffman’s new Howlin’
Wolf
biography, Moanin’ at Midnight, round out
the issue.
In addition to the magazine, the staff at Living
Blues has
produced the 2005 Blues Directory, an essential
resource for blues artists, professionals, and
fans. Orders are being taken for the 2005 directory,
and those submitting orders before September 1,
2004, will receive a free Chris Thomas King CD.
To place an order, please visit our Web site (www.livingblues.com)
or send us an e-mail (lblues@olemiss.edu).
Finally, planning is underway for our 2005 Blues
Today: A
Living Blues Symposium, scheduled for February
18-20, 2005.
Tentatively planned are discussions on the legacy
of Robert
Johnson, a panel of blues documentary filmmakers,
and our
annual Blues on the Square concerts. Web site
registration will
begin in September so please make your travel
plans now!
