Rezensionen der Redaktion

Amazon.de

Chasin' That Devil Music has the feel of a documentary about the making of a thrilling motion picture. The main focus is on the Delta blues singers of the early 20th century--artists such as Charley Patton, Tommy Johnson, Son House, and Blind Lemon Jefferson who've achieved near-mythic status in blues circles. In addition, many of the articles gathered in this splendidly illustrated volume capture the process and people involved in tracking long-lost recordings nearly as elusive as the performers who made them. Here, for example, is the story of author/blues scholar Gayle Dean Wardlow's three-year hunt for the death certificate of Robert Johnson, the celebrated Mississippi bluesman and a figure whose legend has grown greater with each year since his much-debated death in 1938. The text here is nearly as raw in spots as the music that sparked it, but, as with those sounds (which can be heard on a terrific CD sampler included with the book), enthusiasts will find Chasin' That Devil Music riveting. --Steven Stolder

Pressestimmen

A beautiful piece of research...essential reading.-- Jazzbeat, Spring 1999 A special book. I highly recommend this work for anyone who wants to know more or better understand our music.Jazz Educators Journal, May 1999 Clarifies information or solves mysteries regarding dozens of lesser-known musicians...a resonant breath of the real people whose lives came and went, leaving behind performances of beauty and power. The accompanying audio is a generous batch of rare recordings with interview excerpts interspersed. Tower Records Epulse website, December 7, 1998 Essential reading for anyone interested in the history of Delta blues. Blues Revue, April 1999 --Book News, December 1998

Wardlow amply deserves the description 'legendary blues sleuth'...the book makes a fascinating read... --Juke Blues

Wardlow is a virtual Sherlock Holmes of the blues. --The Rylander

One man's journey to find the blues

Rezension aus den Vereinigten Staaten vom 16. Juni 2014

Verifizierter Kauf

Wardlow paints a vivid picture of what it was like for him as a young man seeking out the "lost" blues recordings of the Mississippi Delta. Readers are introduced to a variety of characters who, each in their own way, helped keep this classic music alive for the next generation to discover. It includes a CD of some of Wardlow's discoveries and that alone is worth the price of the book. Highly recommended for lovers of the blues or music history in general.

And not like the Spinal Tap variety

Rezension aus den Vereinigten Staaten vom 3. Mai 2017

Verifizierter Kauf

I use this as a skim through bathroom book. A lot of the style of writing in this book is of a documentary style. And not like the Spinal Tap variety. Some parts are just not captivating for my desire. However it is well done and very much a good look at the struggles some went through to track down pioneers of blues music.

Jerome Clark

a flawed but worthwhile look at the makers of the blues

Rezension aus den Vereinigten Staaten vom 20. Februar 1999

Chasin' That Devil Music will interest hard-core devotees and scholars of rural blues, even if its narrow focus will occasionally frustrate and exasperate them. Those of us who love American roots music owe Gayle Dean Wardlow a huge debt of gratitude for the many years he has devoted to the search for the the human beings behind those scratchy, classic 1920s/1930s Mississippi blues recordings. This book puts between covers a number of articles, most of them fairly short, Wardlow has published in blues and record-collector periodicals since the 1960s. It's fat with detail and minutia of varying degrees of interest, and here and there it stops to debunk some hoary blues legend. It contains a wealth of terrific photographs, and a splendid CD accompanies it. That's the good news. The bad news is that nothing especially profound or engaging is going on here. Wardlow treats the musicians as if they existed in a vacuum except when they recorded, played, or interacted with one another. The reader longs for some effort to put these talented men (there are few women here) into a broader cultural context, or for some attempt to relate rural blues to the other varieties of rural Southern folk music, white as well as black, that helped to create and shape it. Then, again, maybe it isn't fair to criticize an author for not writing the book you wish he'd written. It can, however, be fairly charged that because of its reprint format, the book lacks structure and narrative drive. Wardlow ought to have attempted to use the articles simply as the first draft of a coherent, fully realized book. As it is, Chasin' That Devil Music is best ingested in small bites.

Curtiss Clarke

This is as close as it gets to the source

Rezension aus den Vereinigten Staaten vom 4. Mai 2009

Gayle Dean Wardlow has compiled this excellent collection from many of his articles and essays of first-hand research, orignally written for monthly publications such as 78 Quarterly and Blues Unlimited.

In the early 1960's, collectors like himself had just started to introduce this fabulous music (Afro-American country blues) to a wider audience. The book specifies that as Wardlow was growing up in Mississippi, he admired the music of country singer Roy Acuff; as a result, he began to collect "race-music" country blues 78's only for the purpose of trading them for other country and hillbilly 78's. His job as an exterminator at the time, allowed him to canvas the neighbourhoods in Mississippi where he was working for rare blues and country records.

Not surprisingly, his interest in country blues records that had been issued in the 20's and 30's, was heightened considerably as he began to trade with other collectors. Wardlow was able to interview many friends, relatives, and aquaintances of some of the early blues greats like Charley Patton, Son House, Willie Brown, Bukka White, Tommy Johnson, and of course, Robert Johnson.

While these artists are certainly the better known ones, the author drills deep into the history of the blues and finds out much about some of the lesser known, but no less interesting ones like, King Solomon Hill (Joe Holmes), Garfield Akers, the Huff Brothers, and Blind Joe Reynolds to name a few.

Along the way, Wardlow also managed to locate and interview H.C. Speir, the guy who discovered many of the artists, acted as their agent, and got them into a recording studio. Another bonus is an interview with Ishman Bracey who was a partner of Tommy Johnson for a while, and who it seems, knew just about everybody else in the South who was playing blues in the 1920's.

Readers will find some interesting notes where Wardlow helps to dispell some of the silly myths perpetuated about the blues (I sold my soul to the Devil on a dirt road in exchange for talent; Charley Patton was murdered).

Anyone who has the least interest in country blues will enjoy this book and its accompanying CD containing rare recordings and interviews by the artists and promoters discussed in the book. While the book is now out of print, it's historical importance is likely to ensure that it will be republished in the near future.

This is one of the most interesting and scholarly books ever written on the subject of country blues. If you want it from the source, this book and the one published by Alex van der Tuuk "Paramount's Rise and Fall" (Mainspring Press) are about as close as you are going to get to the source of this great music.

J'ai commandé ce livre sur le site ou il était présenté accompagné de son Cd physique. J'avais demandé par mail lors de la commande si le cd y était bien inclus et le site répondait que oui, sauf que je ne l'ai pas reçu. Déçu, j'ai tenté de contacter les responsables pour un remboursement ne serait-ce que partiel mais ceux-ci ont ignorés ma demande. Je n'achèterais plus sur ce site. Dommage pour un livre très intéressant.

Item was delivered far too late. But from USA to Belgium Europe... I don't want to make a fuzz. I send some mails, and they answered very fast and correct. I don't blame the shop; they did their best, I know. CD was missing but it was second hand... I don' worry. I wsa offered a reduction. Life's too beautifull and at least: I wanted that book. Nice book about the blues, just what I needed, fitting the rest of my collection. Impressive photo-material and documentation. Yup... 5 stars.
