In 1968, Wells returned from a State Department-sponsored tour of Africa and told a Newsweek correspondent, "We got to one place and they had banners saying 'Welcome Home, Junior'. I told 'em, man I said, this ain't my home, I live one block north of the Loop. Then they asked me what I thought of black power. I said black power is me making it with Aretha Franklin." - from Larry Cohn's Nothing But The Blues

Joseph Spence New Yorker Article

Hi all,
I saw this awhile back and meant to share then but didn't get around to it, so here it is now:
Amanda Petrusich did a short write up in August for the New Yorker about Joseph Spence and his first recordings with Sam Charters and Ann Danberg. It was spurred by the Folkways recent reissue of his first album.
