Topic: The Chicago Blues of Joe and Charlie McCoy

[jostber]

Another book by the prolific blues author Guido Van Rijn:

The Chicago Blues of Joe and Charlie McCoy



Should be an interesting one with a lot of new research on these brothers who played on a lot of recordings and were important for the early blues development.

Very prolific indeed.

I'll ask him one of these days when the 5th Edition of Blues And Gospel Records 1890-1943 will be released.

That would be very interesting to know more of, thanks.

I got an update from Guido that the McCoy Brothers book will not be available before August. I took the plunge for the Leroy Carr, Jazz Gillum, and the "Hot Time Blues: On the Trail of Long-Gone Blues and Gospel Singers" books instead. The first two including CDs. Will be nice Blues Summer reads.
