The Great Blues Road Trip of 1930
-
Narrated by:

By:
In 1930, pioneering African American Mississippi Delta Blues musicians, Charley Patton, Son House, Willie Brown, Louise Johnson, and driver Wheeler Ford, travelled up to Grafton Wisconsin to record “race-records” for the Paramount Label. The commercial blues records they made at Paramount greatly influenced the course of blues and popular music, and the spirited and colorful trip itself has become a story of legend….. Events and details from the now famous road-trip were later recalled by Son House, who was on the trip, in various interviews some years later. This podcast is a fictionalized version of that trip, based on the recollections of Son House.
