	Talking blues - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Talking blues was a style of rhythmic speech or near-speech where the melody is free but the rhythm is strict.
		The music genre or technique developed in the blues in the early 20th century from influences including African music, British folk song, and the music-hall stage (as put by English politician Robert Somers: "Sambo is a natural-born cockney").
		Tex Williams was most well known for his talking blues, and Woody Guthrie popularized the style.

	Albert King: Talking Blues - PopMatters Music Review
		Talking Blues kicks off with a rollicking live version of "Born under a Bad Sign", a prophetic tune if there ever was one for Albert King.
		After all, we're talking about a left-handed guitarist who, unlike Hendrix, didn't even bother to restring his axe; he just played it the way it was made, bending downward rather than upward when he needed a pitch change.
		Hearing King play is one thing, but hearing him talk about the musical form that he spent all of his life honing, perfecting, and disseminating is what really makes this disc worth the dough.

		Chris's most famous piece, "Talking Blues," was like a rock thrown in a still pool - the ripples went on and on.
		Suffice it to say that Chris's 1926 text is the basis for nearly all the later "Talking Blues" forms, and a masterpiece of old-time southern humor.

		Talking rhythmically, with or without a musical backing, is not a new idea.
		Second, he discusses how preachers in African-American churches talk and move in rhythmic fashions, and how their speeches are often responded to by the audience (something termed "call and response" in songs).
		In a "talking blues" song, the performer plays a a simple, repetitive, rhythmical pattern on the guitar, while talking in time to it, often telling a funny story or boasting outrageously.

		When Lavada Durst sits at the piano, he likes to “tickle the keys.” As he starts to play, his face lights up and the music rambles out, a kind of talking blues that is at once traditional and personal, improvised to meet the emotions of the moment at hand.
		“Robert was a master of barrelhouse blues who played that Sugar Land (Texas) style of fast piano,” Durst says, “combing blues with ragtime and stride.” From Shaw (Arhoolie CD 377), Durst learned the rudiments of what is now referred to as the Texas barrelhouse piano style.
		On the air, he used the call name “Dr. Hepcat,” and during his show, which featured primarily rhythm and blues and jazz, he used to jive talk to pique the interests of his listeners in making introductions to records, public service announcements, and commercials.

	Bob Dylan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Zimmerman spent much of his youth listening to the radio, first to the powerful blues and country stations broadcasting from New Orleans and, later, early rock and roll.
		The single "Like a Rolling Stone" was a U.S. and U.K. hit, cementing his reputation as a lyricist; at over six minutes, devoid of a bridge, the song also helped to expand the limits of hit radio.
		The songs were in the same vein as the hit single, surreal litanies of the grotesque flavored by Mike Bloomfield's blues guitar, a tight rhythm section and Dylan's obvious enjoyment of the sessions.

		It's the first "true" Dylan tape we have, by that I mean that the voice is recognizably Dylan and the style and selection of songs closer to what we normally think of when we talk about the early years.
		The material on this tape leaves a lot to be desired, and Dylan hasn't yet figured out how to break out of his shell.
		At one point he gets so rattled at a woman singing along with one of the talking blues songs, that he breaks out in mock anger and swears at her.

	John Greenway -- obvious source of Bob Dylan's talking blues (Manfred Helfert)
		I honestly believe that (besides Harry Smith's "Anthology of American Folk Music", also on Folkways) this is one of the major single sources of Dylan's early repertoire and that some of the Guthrie talking blues were learned "second-hand" from this album.
		What really gives this album away as a source for Bob is "Talking Subway" (Woody Guthrie): Of the eleven stanzas, according to the notes, "the first four may be found in a small collection of Guthrie's songs, issued in 1947" ("American Folksong," edited by Moses Asch).
		The striking similarities between "Talking Subway" and Bob's "Talking New York" are too numerous to list here.

		Though music fans loved being within 10 feet of the stage at all times, Denley decided to expand the room for the comfort of both his customers and the bands.
		Stories of rock and R&B pioneers of the 1950s nd ´60s usually have the same sad ending: Despite years of record sales and radio air play, unfair contracts have kept artists from ever seeing their cut of the profits.
		Having recorded with the likes of the Allman Brothers Band, Boz Scaggs and Stevie Nicks, and shared stages with such touring heavyweights as Steve Miller and Hall & Oates, Les Dudek´s solo career took off in the late 1980s with a slew of critically acclaimed records.
