Shush, I was keeping quiet about that, didn't want to send Adam into an apoplectic fit. [loud laugh] Oliver has still to finish a book with the working title of "The Blues The World Forgot"!davidt wrote:I see Paul Oliver has a new book out: Barrelhouse Blues

What's that whispering at the back? Balfour? Stand up. Perhaps you'd like to tell the entire class just what's so funny?
Can we have a blues book with sub-sections like:
Blues that Black American People Used To Like
Blues That A Few Black American People Still Like
Blues That No Black American Person Ever Liked
Boring Blues That Has To Be Included For Historical Reasons
Rocking Blues That Can't Be Included For Reasons To Be Summarily Decided By White People
Blues That Girls Like To Dance To
Blues That Men Like To Argue About
No? OK. I'll go back to sleep.
