Blues Roots
Escaping the Delta – The Roots of the Blues, Professionelle schwarze Musiker spielen in den 20ger und 30ger Jahren weit mehr als nur den Blues, aber die meist weissen Schallplattenproduzenten nehmen bei Ihren Field-Recording Touren oft nur Bluesaufnahmen in ihr Repertoire. Im Buch Escaping the Delta von Elijah Wald wird ein weit komplexeres Bild gezeichnet, von den schwarzen Musikern, die sich als professionelle Unterhaltungskünstler ihren Lebensunterhalt mit Musik verdienen können. Ein spannendes Stück Musikgeschichte, um für eine Sendung lang zum Field-Blues-Sound in die 1930ger Jahre abzutauchen
