"Bob Brozman: the globetrotting Mr. National. (guitarist)"

Bob Brozman is a 48-year-old border-defying guitarist and musical intellectual who is always on the lookout for new songs and sounds, as well as fellow experimental musicians and far-flung locales--consistently offering a fresh approach as he illuminates the vast musical landscapes he traverses. Employing a deep and broad blues acumen alongside multi-disciplinary skills on the metal-body National guitar (coupled with the lush, trance-like traditional sounds of rural Hawaiian music or pre-Belafonte native-Calypso grooves as calling cards), Brozman has traveled the globe, from Okinawa to Australia, collaborating with like-minded rhythmic masters and cementing his reputation as a major player on the current world music scene. The titles of two of his independent releases, The Running Man and Live Now, seem most apt.

Growing up on Long Island, there were no musicians in his immediate family, but one of Brozman's uncles, Barney Josephson, ran a 1940s-era Greenwich Village night spot that challenged then prevalent racial barriers among performers and audience alike. "Cafe Society was the first integrated club in America. It featured everybody from Teddy Wilson and Gene Krupa to Billie Holiday and Benny Goodman," Brozman explains.

"Every well-known jazz name of the 1930s and `40s played there until the early 1950s when the Red Scare was going on. My uncle was involved in the Communist Party as a teenager and that fact got dug up by Hedda Hopper, who was a very powerful newspaper columnist. One day she printed that Cafe Society was a Commie hangout and the next day there was no business and that was the end of that club." . . .

I found it through my university database via Gale, SingOut 46.4 p50, word count 2964. By Gary von Tersch. It is parked in with all of the reviews. I saved a copy of it as a PDF, and if some of the hoopla blows over I can post it as a file on the facebook mudcat page. Until such time comes, if you're a mudcat member you can send me a PM with your email address and I'll email you the PDF.
