    It Began Here
  

*by M***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2014*

THis is something every serious Blues listener or anyone interested in American music should read. Unlike most books about the Blues and Blues musicians, this tells a first hand account of the times and the dangers in trying to record or in some cases even associate with Bluesmen. Painful accounts of segregation and flat out ignorance. This is a view of the blues from the very ground they worked. Walking the dirt road to locate the musicians. Going to notorious prisons searching for roots music. Going to a Juke joint to be with Son House in his world. Experiencing that moment and those artists before they were well known and while they were still alive. If you want a glossy history of the Blues, this is not it. If you want the down and dirty truth about where and how the Blues began, then here you go. I loved it. I learned more about Levee camps and Muleskinners than I expected and came away richer for it. Very informative. First hand accounts of what I knew had happened, brought to life by the guy who found it and recorded it.

    From These Roots Came the Blues
  

*by G***. on Reviewed in the United States on December 26, 2020*

Historic journey throughout the Mississippi Delta by ethnomusicologist Alan Lomax during the mid-twentith century is illuminating as well as educational. We meet blues legends Son House, Fred McDowell, Muddy Waters, and Bill Broonzy, and hear them tell of their experiences in their own words. Lomax makes clear the social pressure and discrimination that impacted development of their music, and he skillfully relates blues and its musical antecedents to African origins. A vital contribution to our understanding of the development of American music.
