Charley Patton Expanded Edition: The Definitive Biography Of The Father Of The Delta Blues Charley Patton: Expanded Edition John Fahey

About the Book

Charley Patton was a pioneering American blues musician who is widely considered to be the 'Father of the Delta Blues.' Born in Mississippi in 1891, Patton began playing guitar and singing as a young man. In the 1920s, he recorded a series of influential songs for the Paramount label, including "Pony Blues," "Down the Dirt Road Blues," and "Mississippi Bo Weavil Blues." Patton's music was characterized by its raw, emotional power and its innovative use of guitar techniques. He was a major influence on later blues musicians, including Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, and B.B. King.

John Fahey's Charley Patton was first published in 1970 and quickly became the definitive biography of the blues legend. This expanded edition includes new research and interviews, as well as从未发表的照片和文件。 Fahey's book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the blues or American music in general.
