Living Blues #279 features trailblazing blueswoman Gaye Adegbalola. Adegbalola has been speaking up and speaking out her whole life. A founding member of Saffire—The Uppity Blues Women in 1984, Adegbalola continues to make her life in music matter. California-based Dee Dee Simon has lived the highs and lows of the music industry but she has landed on her feet during the pandemic, producing several “Queens” projects focusing on women of the soul blues scene. Virtually unknown outside of New York City, guitarist Andy Story should have been more widely appreciated. Story died while we were producing this feature on him. We hope this will stand as a fitting legacy to an overlooked blues guitar master. Vocalist Tia Carroll cut her teeth in rock cover bands but after hearing a Koko Taylor CD she realized her calling was the blues. With one of the top albums of last year, Carroll is finally getting the attention her talent deserves. This issue’s Let It Roll focusses on Victoria Spivey and Lonnie Johnson and their October 13–18, 1928 sessions for OKeh Records which featured two of the giants of pre-war blues recording songs of striking visual imagery and some of the steamiest double-entendre songs ever recorded.
All of this plus the latest in Blues News, LB Talks To Kenny Neal, over 50 record reviews, and the winners of the 2022 Living Blues Awards.
