Description Considering that he was the most popular male blues recording artist of the 1920’s, we know surprisingly little about Blind Lemon Jefferson. He had recorded over 100 sides for the Paramount label from 1926 to 1929 when he died in mysterious circumstances in Chicago. He inspired a generation of Bluesmen but had few imitators due to the complexity of his guitar playing and distinctive high clear, voice. In this fantastic lesson DVD, modern day virtuoso Ari Eisingfer explains the secrets...

From the field cries and work chants of Southern Negroes emerged a rich and vital music called the country blues, an intensely personal expression of the pains and pleasures of black life. This music--recorded during the twenties by men like Blind Lemon Jefferson, Big Bill Broonzy, and Robert Johnson--had all but disappeared from memory until the folk music revival of the late 1950's created a new and appreciable audience for the country blues.

The Father of Texas blues, Blind Lemon Jefferson began a successful recording career for Chicago’s Paramount Records in 1926, recording over 100 sides in just three short years, right up until his premature death at age 35 in 1929. Wildly popular, he was one of the first male blues guitar players to achieve national acclaim. His versatile guitar style and two-octave vocal range—which allowed him to sing in an impossibly high register—made his style unique among country blues singers. Influencing...

A few weeks later Lemon was back to his usual form recording Maltese Cat Blues which, two decades on, provided the inspiration for Sleepy John Estes' moving Rats In My Kitchen, and the lively D. B. Blues which celebrates his acquisition of a new Ford sedan. (Legend has it that after his arrival in Chicago, Lemon employed a chauffeur to drive him around but on the night he supposedly froze to death in the street his driver failed to pick him up.) Although recorded in mid-summer Lemon, always the thorough...

'Nobody sings the blues like Blind Willie McTell' sings BOB BYLAN in the song he named after this all-time great blues legend. 'The King of the Georgia Blues Singers' is presented here with no less than 112 tracks recorded between 1927 & 1949, including the immortal 'STATESBORO BLUES'.

Jefferson’s last recording session was held in the Gennett studios in Richmond, Indiana in September, 1929 and produced an unprecedented twelve masters. Lemon’s voice sounds thicker on these recordings and one could speculate that this was a result of declining health, perhaps due to heavy drinking, but there is no real evidence of this and it may only be the result of the different studio sound. The singing was still ear, catching, the guitar playing fluid and the songs imaginative. Bed Spring Blues...

Lightnin's style itself came along at the perfect time: the advent of the electric guitar. His style, strong rhythms punctuated by his flowing but compact lead lines created a stinging and heart-tearing evocative sound. Lightnin's guitar style and technique worked great for both the acoustic or electrical guitars. The blues of Freddy King, Albert Collins, the Vaughn brothers, Billy Gibbons, testify to the power of this style. Lightnin' connects the generations of players, starting with Blind Lemon...
