Re: [Harp-L] SON HOUSE WITH STUDS TERKEL,Chicago 1965



Ken,

Thank you for finding and posting this. Many people know Studs as an interviewer and author, but fewer know of his background in music and his friendship with many musicians. His first book, Giants of Jazz, was about musicians.

Even at his lowest, after being blacklisted in the 50s, he still made his meager apartment available to countless musicians visiting Chicago. These tracks are fine examples both of his friendships with musicians and his great interview style.

I am told that one of his nephews is an avid player and occasional contributor to this list. ;-)
