		Blues Online© is an information resource whose mission is to increase awareness and appreciation of blues music and its history.
		Blues music has profoundly influenced contemporary music from jazz to pop to reggae to country.
		Aside from the profound artistic influence the Blues has had, the story of its development has much to say historically and sociologically about American society in the twentieth century.

	Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Imperial unit (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		The term imperial should not be applied to English units that were outlawed in Weights and Measures Act of 1824 or earlier, or which had fallen out of use by that time, nor to post-imperial inventions such as the slug or poundal.
		The Imperial gallon was based on the volume of 10 lb of distilled water weighed in air with brass weights with the barometer standing at 30 in and at a temperature of 62 °F.
		Imperial units were eliminated from all road signs, although both systems of measurement will still be found on privately-owned signs (such as the height warnings at the entrance of a multi-storey parking facility).

	Grim Stalker's Imperial Guard (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Whether on horseback on an imperial Deathworld, or in armoured fighting vehicles in support of a space marine chapter or the many and various allies in places such as the galactic core to the edge of the astronomican, you can expect to see the Imperial Household Cavalry at the forefront of any Imperial army.
		The Imperial Horse Guards trace their origins back to a force raised by Oliver Cromwell (one of the warlords who fought against the emperor for control of Terra) prior to the liberation of southern Tera, but Cromwell’s officers were replaced before the liberation of mars.
		The regiment was especially favoured by Primarch Ferrus manus of the Iron Hands Legion and, with the appointment of the Rogal Dorn of the Imperial Fist Legion as the regimental colonel, was elevated to the status of Imperial Household Cavalry.

	Africa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Africa in the Blue marble picture, with Antarctica to the south, and the Sahara and Arabian peninsula at the top of the globe.
		In the late nineteenth century, the European imperial powers staged a major "scramble for Africa" and occupied most of the continent, creating many colonial nation states, and leaving only two independent nations: Liberia, the Black American colony, and Orthodox Christian Abyssinia (Ethiopia).
		Egypt has long been a cultural focus of the Arab world, while remembrance of the rhythms of sub-Saharan Africa, in particular west Africa, was transmitted through the Atlantic slave trade to modern samba, blues, jazz, reggae, rap, and rock and roll.

	Imperial Album Discography
		Imperial was the distributor of Minit from 1961, and with the acquisition of Minit, Imperial obtained the contracts of Irma Thomas and Ernie K-Doe.
		In 1970, UA transferred most of the Imperial artists to Liberty for future releases, and by 1971 Imperial had essentially ceased to exist as a distinct new-product label.
		Although rhythm and blues was the mainstay of the pre-1964 Imperial label, Lew Chudd's label also recorded jazz, with top artists like Sonny Criss and Warner Marsh, and country music (Slim Whitman being his most successful artist).

		It was a split session with Tommy Ridgley, who recorded "Shrewsbury Blues" (Imperial 5054), his very first single.
		Imperial issued three further Jewel King singles during 1950, but they sold poorly.
		The discography that accompanies the Proper set says that this is the recording from 1949, but it is obvious that this was recorded in 1955 or 1956, with a very good solo by Lee Allen.

	¡No Pasarán!: Post-Imperial Blues and Iraqi Sovereignty
		The US therefore played the largest role in the setting up the context during the 20th Century through which imperialism and subsequent de-colonization was to be appraised.
		Political domination as espoused by the European imperial powers of the 19th Century was by far a mixed bag with some colonies experiencing brutal subjugation.
		In the end, the most important lesson to be learned is that Americans should not view imperialism as automatically negative in all its forms.

	"Shih Tzu Color and Appearance from the Beginning to Now", an article at Holistic Junction
		At the Imperial Court golden-yellow, sometimes described as honey, was the "favorite" or "proper" color, and it has been said many, many times by different shih tzu historians that this color was the only color kept in the palace.
		It is my thinking those greyish-white sleeve dogs in the Imperial Palace were little imperial "blues." Some of the blues have a light blue nose and light eyes.
		During the days of the Empress Dowager and in the Imperial Court, the gold color were considered to be the most desirable because these dogs most closely resembled the lion.

		Except for heavyset Kansas City-bred blues shouter Big Joe Turner, who had been around since the late 1930s and was the unlikeliest teen idol of all, most of them were either new to the spotlight or finally breaking through after struggling to sell wax prior to the revolutionary music's dawning.
		The blues was Fats' bedrock from day one, and he never wandered far away from it.

		Somewhere between the blues-jazz of Lonnie Johnson and Charlie Christian and the electrified blues of B.B. King, Chuck Berry, and Buddy Guy is Aaron "T-Bone" Walker, the man who fused influences of the past and reshaped them into modern guitar blues.
		A master showman as well as a brilliant guitarist and singer, Walker is a performer whose influence cannot be underestimated: nearly every blues guitarist of the past half-century has paid props to the man. His best-known song, "Stormy Monday," is a staple of every bar band's repertoire.
		Although nominally versed in blues, Walker often sought the accompaniment of jazz musicians who allowed free rein for the guitarist's fluid style.

	Fats Domino
		In New Orleans in the 1940s it was possible for a musician to make a living without ever venturing far outside the region, and Domino appeared to be another in the long lineage of Crescent City local stars as he packed crowds in night after night at the Hideaway Club until fate eventually intervened.
		He and Chudd worked out an agreement for Bartholomew to scout talent and produce records for Imperial in his native New Orleans and when Chudd arrived a few weeks later Bartholomew brought him to the Hideaway Club to see the increasingly popular local draw Domino, who was signed almost immediately.
		In 1962 however his Imperial contract expired and he was offered an enormous amount to sign with ABC-Paramount Records, a company still looking to make a dent in rock 'n' roll.

		Their music is "filled with psychedelic garage beats, straight soul stomps and magic voodoo sound" (Blue Rhythm, Summer 2004) and with "wicked swamp funk, heated Rhythm & Blues, souly shuffles or rattling Boogie" (Rolling Stone Germany, May 2004).
		There everybody could see for oneself that the Imperial Crowns are a terrific live band.

		Songs like "Girlfriend Blues" ("my girlfriend's got a girlfriend too"), "Stacked in the Back," "Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time," and "Love Recession" are filled with tongue-in-cheek humor while breaking new lyrical ground in the idiom.
		As fellow guitarist Rusty Zinn, now a veteran bluesman himself, points out in the liner notes to Blues Is in the House, "...he's a stringbender to be reckoned with." Zinn continues, "He doesn't sound like B.B., Albert or Freddie.

		A founding father of electric blues in general and Texas blues in particular, guitarist T-Bone Walker influenced countless blues players and, by extension, countless rock & rollers as well.
		The Complete Imperial Recordings date from the early to mid-1950s, when the idea of electric blues was really taking hold, and the two-disc set is a wealth of classic songs exquisitely performed.
		While definitely blues, there's more difference between this and the acoustic blues that predated Walker than amplification can account for; there's jazz and swing mixed in as well, as on tracks like "I Walked Away" and "Strollin' with Bone," and something of that feel has remained in electric blues ever since.

	Ian Ellis Blues Imperials Live Review
		Following closely in the footsteps of the recent debut of his 12 piece* (plus guests) Blues Orchestra (now renamed The Blues Imperials), at The Boom Boom Club, Sutton, Ian Ellis brought a stripped down 6 piece to the Torrington to fill in for a last minute cancellation.
		Ian added a nice biographical touch during a mid set blues work out, explaining to the crowd that both he and founder member of Savoy Brown had both been in the band at different times, but still ended up playing the same song.
		Given the short notice nature of the gig, there was little room for other than tried and tested R&b/blues covers, but it was the sheer power, enthusiasm and superb playing that the Blues Imperial brought down to bear on their set that made this a special evening.
