This collection assembles the best interviews from Steve Cushing's
long-running radio program "Blues Before Sunrise, " the nationally
syndicated, award-winning program focusing on vintage blues and
R&B. As both an observer and performer, Cushing has been
involved with the blues scene in Chicago for decades. His candid,
colorful interviews with prominent blues players, producers, and
deejays reveal the behind-the-scenes world of the formative years
of recorded blues. Many of these oral histories detail the careers
of lesser-known but greatly influential blues performers and
promoters. The book focuses in particular on pre-World War II blues
singers, performers active in 1950s Chicago, and nonperformers who
contributed to the early blues world. Interviewees include Alberta
Hunter, one of the earliest African American singers to transition
from Chicago's Bronzeville nightlife to the international
spotlight, and Ralph Bass, one of the greatest R&B producers of
his era. Blues expert, writer, record producer, and cofounder of
"Living Blues Magazine" Jim O'Neal provides the book's foreword.
