12’ Bar Ramblin’ #20 'Return to Memphis' with Stefan Matussek 26.09.2017

The Memphis blues is another one of those important styles that warranted a
revisit. This usually upbeat and danceable form of the blues that was originally
popular in vaudeville and medicine shows. In its early stages it ranged from a
variation of the surrounding acoustic guitar-based styles  to jug-band
arrangements.  In later decades it developed into a loud form of the electric
blues.  Many great musicians played the clubs in this city and many classics
were also recorded there.
