Jack Dappa Blues Heritage Preservation Radio Folgen

As Black History Month comes to an end, after the Grammy's are long gone and post his open letter about the miseducation and representation of the Blues category nomination process, I sit down in Time Square New York to speak with Chris Thomas King.  On this special 2 hour episode, CTK shares the misconception of the birthplace of the Blues, the proof of this misconception, history of Louisiana and the Creole culture, as well as addressing his open letter and the book titled “The Original Blues: The Emergence of the Blues in African American Vaudeville” by Lynn Abbott & Doug Seroff.  He explains why his album "Hotel Voodoo" is definitely a Blues Album. if you haven't read the article, click here Be sure to subscribe, rate, like and share!

on this episode of Jack Dappa Blues Heritage Podcast, I speak with Elizabeth Lynn Kilrain about her journey with Blues Dancing and her organization Blue Note SD who's mantra is: "Dancing the Blues in San Diego!" The mission of her organization is exploring, celebrating, and growing the blues dance community through musical immersion, classes, social dancing, and competition.  We discuss how the music, culture, lifestyle and vernacular of the Blues People resonate with the feel of the Blues Dance. https://bluenotesd.com https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_VS8hyyZK1V9xWjiC2hGnQ

On this episode, Marquise Knox and I discuss the issues that prompted Chris Thomas King to write his open letter addressing the gentrification of the Blues based on him being removed from the Grammy nomination list for best Blues Album. As we address this issue, we refer and share quotes from other Black Blues Musicians, (Chick Willis and Corey Harris) that have addressed similar, if not the same concerns in the past.
