The Singer Not the Song

on BBC Radio 4 FM

3/5. The Blues. The series examining the best voices in different genres turns its attention to the blues. The blues singer has to be the master of the quick emotional change, possess a voice that can knock down houses, and unless they have a story to tell, they won't have much of a future. The blues grew from the experiences of the African-American, but does the blues singer have to be poor and black? Producer Cecile Wright
