John Jackson: The Video Collection 1970-1999

John Jackson: The Video Collection 1970-1999

John Jackson grew up in rural Virginia, listening to the older musicians around him and the blues stars whose records he heard on his family's wind-up phonograph. For a while in his youth, he played at country dances, but mostly he just picked the guitar and banjo for his own amusement, and his tastes ranged from the Piedmont blues of Blind Blake, Josh White and Blind Boy Fuller to the hillbilly yodels of Jimmie Rodgers and an old-time banjo style that reached back to the 19th century.?I can play most anything I put my mind to if I want to,? he would say, with a big smile. ?Blues, mountain hoedowns dance tunes... I don't get into soul or disco or rap music or nothing like that, but I ain't got anything against it; it just didn't come along when I did.?Jackson always seemed supremely relaxed and easy-going, but under his friendly country manner he was an indefatigable worker. He recalled a time when musicians would walk twenty miles over dirt roads to get to a house party, play till the wee hours of the morning, then walk home and put in a full day on the farm, and he kept numerous jobs ? most famously as a grave digger ? into his seventies. He was just as dedicated onstage, an all-around entertainer who mixed his songs with jokes and stories and tried to give his audiences a sense not only of the music he loved, but of the world that had produced it.That world is long gone, but it lives on in the loping rhythms of Jackson's intricate guitar picking and the mellow flow of his honey-slow Virginia drawl. This is old-time, back-porch country music, played by a man who always seemed like he was just kicking back and enjoying himself with some friends, but put all he had into every note.

The Guitar Artistry of David Bromberg: Demon In Disguise (DVD)

The Guitar Artistry of David Bromberg: Demon In Disguise (DVD)

?The extraordinary folk-blues guitarist David Bromberg has strolled back into the spotlight as abruptly as he resigned from it nearly three decades ago when he dissolved his fantastic and popular touring band in 1980 to study violin making... The fluid, orchestral invention of Bromberg?s fingerpicking ? his original calling card on pivotal late-1960S and 1970S sessions for Jerry Jeff Walker (?Mr. Bojangles?) and Bob Dylan (New Morning) ? is in undiminished bloom, invigorating sturdy old blues and ballads.? - ROLLING STONEIn this intimate portrait, the legendary David Bromberg talks about his influences and performs the music he loves - a wide panorama of American blues, folk, country, bluegrass, ragtime, jazz and contemporary sounds.Inspired by the music of Pete Seeger and the Weavers, among others, he began studying the guitar at age 13. After graduating from Tarrytown High School, he enrolled at Columbia University intent on a career as a musicologist. During this period he discovered the old recordings of Blind Blake, Lonnie Johnson, Big Bill Broonzy, Marshall Owens, Luke Jordan and other great country bluesmen, as well as contemporary recordings of B.B.King, Freddie King and Albert King. He studied with Rev. Gary Davis for several years and as Rev. Davis said, ?I have no children but I have several sons?. David was a son to the great Reverend.Drawn to Greenwich Village's flourishing coffeehouse folk music scene of the mid-1960?s, David left Columbia University and opted to devote full time to his music. Shortly thereafter, his extraordinary guitar picking and exceptional stylistic range brought him to the attention of many other musicians: Bob Dylan, Ringo Starr, George Harrison, Tom Paxton, and Chubby Checker are only a few of the notables who sought David out as a back-up artist for recording. In all he has played as a sideman on over 100 albums.

World Fingerstyle Jazz Guitar

World Fingerstyle Jazz Guitar

Records by Charlie Byrd, Lenny Breau, George Van Eps, Laurindo Almieda, and Joe Pass have set a very high standard for solo fingerstyle jazz guitar, and it is from this vantage point that the solo flights of Taylor, Crook, Nichols, Baker, and Mann take wing. Each player has developed a distinctly different approach to interpreting and writing jazz for solo guitar by listening intently to numerous other musicians and composers - pianists, horn players, bassists, and singers as well as many guitarists in jazz, blues and other styles. What distinguishes them from more traditional jazz guitarists (who more or less function in a linear voice in an ensemble) is their ability to play (or imply) all aspects of music - rhythm, chords, bass, and melody - without accompaniment. Their performances not only demonstrate their technical brilliance and imagination, they are a testament to the enduring power and beauty of jazz guitar in its current evolution as a major instrumental force in American music.Martin Taylor: Shining Stockings, My funny Valentine, Just Squeeze Me Tommy Crook: Melody Of Birdland, All The Things You Are, It Had To Be You, Wave Jim Nichols: Can't Take That Away From Me, East Of The Sun, Taste Of Honey, Here's That Rainy Day Duck Baker: Back Home in Indiana, Forty Ton Parachute, Out Of The Past, Seven Point One Woody Mann: Mr. Guitar, Uptown Tales, Gypsy Girl, Cat Burglar
