Negros must stop the deluge of filth, which makers of records are marketing among them. The music of the 'Blues' is one thing, but whether good or bad, it is indefensible to put to it all the stench which ingenuity can drag out the under-world and camouflage with words of double meaning. Don't buy them! Don't go to people's houses who do buy them! Don't permit your race newspaper to bear that name and at the same time advertise flagrant immorality set to music. Do anything, do everything, filthy records must go. - Roy Wilkins, (attrib.) editorial in the December 31 1926 edition of the Kansas City Call, probably written by the man who ironically went on to head up the NAACP

Saw the show.  It was raining cats and dogs that night but the trip from central Jersey to Brooklyn was well worth it!  Ari is amazing.  He played a National and a beautiful Stella - every tune was mesmerizing.

Do you remember what songs he played?

Oh boy - it was a few weeks ago.  He took requests from the audience (of about 20 - 25 people) for every single song he did.  Some of them were "Frankie", "Piney Woods Money Mama", "Meat Shakin' Woman", "Rope Stretchin' Blues",...  He played for about 2 hours.

There's nothing quite like Ari in "jukebox" mode.  Hoo boy!  Things got complicated at home and Kim and I had to miss out on that concert - maybe next time.

Pete,
Is it possible to park near Brooklyn Ethical Culture?  I've been meaning to get out to the Good Coffeehouse, but am not sure if I should drive or take the train.
