I had never heard of Luke Jordan, thanks for turning me on to him. I have been searching on the Web and can find info but no examples of his music. I guess there are only 6 songs in circulation? If you have any links so I can hear him please let me know.
from what I read Jordan is a Piedmont player. I am skewed towards the Delta guys, although I live in the Piedmont area where guys like John Jackson, and Archie Edwards played in that style. I got to see those guys before they died. For some reason the Piedmont style doesn't move me like the Delta stuff. Mississippi John Hurt was such a fixture in the folk revival I grew up in, but aside from appreciating what he does, I don't listen to or play that style. I dig the holy trinity of Charley Patton, Son House and Robert Johnson, and Booker White, Skip James, John Lee Hooker, Mississippi Fred Mcdowell, RL Burnside, Sonny Boy Williamson and Jack Owens among others. My favorite modern players are John Hammond and Rory Block. Do you play? You can hear samples of my music at www.cdbaby/curtisblues Thanks again for the tip on Luke Jordan. --- In [email protected], hermandan0 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Thanks Curtis. I agree totally.
