Subject: RE: Blues In The Mississippi Night - Lomax From: Severn Date: 24 Jul 08 - 06:04 PM OldMole, Ironically, I went into a local Used record store just a few hours ago to sell off some excess stuff I had and saw a CD copy of the recording of which you speak, for $1.99 and decided to buy it at that price to upgrade my cassette copy (which I'd found for 25 cents at a library sale). If you want a cassette copy, PM me your address and I'll send my newly redundant one one to you. |

Subject: RE: Blues In The Mississippi Night - Lomax From: PoppaGator Date: 24 Jul 08 - 04:12 PM Joe, that pasted-in review is not entirely visible on the screen ~ not on my 17" monitor, anyway. The words don't re-wrap, and the Mudcat screen does not provide a left-to-right "slider" to pan across the display, only an up-and-down one. Even when I maximize the window to take up the full screen, the right-hand side of the column is cut off and invisible. I've never encountered this phenomenon before, certainly not here on this site. Wonder how it could happen, whether there's a solution, etc...

Subject: RE: Blues In The Mississippi Night - Amazon From: Joe Offer Date: 23 Sep 06 - 03:23 AM The Blues in the Mississippi Night available at Amazon in the US is on the Rounder label, part of their Alan Lomax collection. It has no recordings by Vera Ward Hall - but the Deep River of Song: Alabama CD from Rounder has "Another Man Done Gone" and several more cuts by Hall. If you buy 10 CD's from the Lomax Collection, you can get them for ten bucks apiece at rounder.com -Joe- |
Subject: RE: Blues In The Mississippi Night - Amazon From: GUEST,Hootenanny Date: 22 Sep 06 - 03:05 PM The Vera Hall track may also be available on the Rounder Record Label in their on-going series of Alan Lomax Recordings. Might be worth checking out. |
Subject: RE: Blues In The Mississippi Night - Amazon From: Mick Pearce (MCP) Date: 22 Sep 06 - 01:33 PM The listing mostly seem to be as above without Vera Hall. However Amazon Germany appear to have a copy for sale with Another Man Done Gone: Blues In The Mississippi Night (I've used Amazon.de often for classical guitar records from them and their sellers and always had good service). The Vera Hall track is available elsewhere eg Treasury of Library of Congress Field Recordings Mick |
Subject: Blues In The Mississippi Night - Amazon From: jukejointeddie Date: 22 Sep 06 - 12:43 PM Hi - me again. I am trying to purchase Blues in the Mississippi Night which was released on Ryko Disc a few years back. The Amazon.com copy, according to the list of songs they provide, is missing Vera Hall's version of "Another Man Done Gone". I am hoping that this is a mistake on the web page. I want to purchase the record, but not if that song is missing... Can nyone help me out on this? Is it an oversight, or does this release of the record have the song??? Thanks, |
Subject: RE: Blues in the Mississippi Night From: masato sakurai Date: 26 Sep 01 - 06:05 AM Some info from other sites.
(1) Blues In the Mississippi Night: An Interview with Memphis Slim, Big Bill Broonzy and Sonny Boy Williamson (Rykodisc, 1990)
From this.
(2) Review of Deep Blues: A Musical and Cultural History of the Mississippi Delta. This was first published by Viking/Penguin in 1981. Robert Palmer edited a video on the field trip with the same title, the content not being the same. Also interesting. ~Masato |
Subject: Blues in the Mississippi Night From: GUEST,Rob Date: 25 Sep 01 - 10:04 PM I am looking for any insight to the cd above mentioned. Comments from dedicated Blues listeners. Aswell, if your familiar with the book Deep Blues , by Robert Palmer... thank you rob |
Subject: RE: Blues in the Mississippi Night From: TheOldMole Date: 18 Jan 00 - 11:49 AM Thanks, folks. Sequel Records seems to have disappeared...all the links to it come up empty. I put in an order with Tower -- they explain that their "special order" means "Maybe we'll get it for you, maybe not." The Old Mole |
Subject: RE: Blues in the Mississippi Night From: Art Thieme Date: 18 Jan 00 - 11:30 AM These were very dangerous things to say back then. The participants utterances could've gotten them killed in the U.S. south back then. The tapes were made by Allan Lomax. Some of them have been incorporated into an amazing recent book by Mr. Lomax.

Subject: RE: Blues in the Mississippi Night From: Brian Hoskin Date: 18 Jan 00 - 07:49 AM If you can't get it there, it was also out on Sequel Records (NEX CD 122). Brian |
Subject: RE: Blues in the Mississippi Night From: Stewie Date: 17 Jan 00 - 09:50 PM Tower Records have it available on special order for about $US10: http://www.towerrecords.com/ Cheers, Stewie. |
Subject: Blues in the Mississippi Night From: TheOldMole Date: 17 Jan 00 - 12:27 PM I'm trying to get hold of this album, reissued on Ryko a couple of years ago, now apparently out of print again. It featured conversation and impromptu songs from Big Bill Broonzy, Memphis Slim and Sonny Boy Williamson. Any suggestions? TheOldMole |
