BLIND BLAKE “Back Biting Bee Blues”
Format: LP
Barcode: 8013252453137
Maybe Arthur “Blind” Blake did not live too long but it was certainly enough to prove the world that he was one of the blind geniuses the history of blues seems to be made of. Born in Florida in 1893, he died at the age of 40 in controversial circumstances – booze? Car accident? - leaving a good number of recordings for Paramount that made him famous as “the king of ragtime guitar”. His astonishingly odd style made his riffs sound like a ragtime piano and his particular fingerpicking inspired many modern blues artists, Jorma Kaukonen among the best known. This collection is one of those musts in your record collection, as no one will believe you are a blues conoisseur without it.
