5.0 out of 5 stars
Blues, Sex and the Broken Heart; a personal Story,
By James Capellini (Arizona) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Blues Alive: A Timeless Tradition (Paperback)
There are some great books on blues out there, but The Blues Alive brings it home to roost in our gut and soul. This is an amazing synthesis of history and anthropology with the personal story of how playing the blues has influenced the author's life. From Flamenco and Gypsy, to African tribal and even Baul music of Bengal, Mr. Flaherty circles the globe and brings us passionate descriptions of how music has been used to express the broken heart and our search for peace within that condition. Spirituality and sexuality have played major roles in all these genres and the book holds nothing back when exploring these topics. An excellent addition (or beginning) for any blues library.
