Spector 67 was charged with murdering actress Lana Clarkson 40 in February 2003 after a sexual liaison at his Alhambra mansion about seven miles northeast of downtown Los Angeles. The two had met hours earlier at the House of Blues music club in West Hollywood where Clarkson worked as a hostess. Spector&#39;s trial like Blake&#39;s and Simpson&#39;s became a media spectacle of a Hollywood insider accused of killing a woman. Still there were sharp differences. Simpson and Blake were more famous than Spector &#8211; who never beamed into anyone&#39;s house regularly on a TV screen Gibbons noted. &#8220;Phil Spector is not a household name and never has been&#8221; said Jean Rosenbluth a University of Southern California law professor who closely followed the trial.</p>

It&#8217;s remarkable what he knows about the guitar. &#8221;    Lightnin&#8217; Hopkins      &#8220;I respected Lightnin&#8217;&#8230; He&#8217;s held a number of jobs some good (surgery orderly) others awful (cleaning out human waste). He&#8217;s loaded missiles onto a stationary launcher. But music always called. Mayes makes it sound more like fate. He toured regularly through the &#8217;70s and by the &#8217;90s he finally got the requisite living-legend attention he deserved. He also got the opportunity to record. His For Pete&#8217;s Sake is a great modern blues record.</p>

The festival opens with several winners of blues competitions followed by blues elder statesman and educator Sterling Billingsley of Mississippi and then gospel-blues singer Diunne Greenleaf of Houston. Wayne Baker Brooks of Chicago son of blues great Lonnie Brooks follows Greenleaf. Mississippi blues-soul legend Bobby Rush performs with Blinddog Smokin? and the evening ends with the Lee Boys a sacred-steel band from Miami. Friday?s festivities start early in the afternoon with two important Mississippi Delta bluesmen Lil? Dave Thompson and drummer Sam Carr the son of famed bluesman Robert Nighthawk both originally from Helena where Nighthawk is buried&#8230; Sherman Robertson of Louisiana will add a touch of Cajun music to the festivities followed by three incendiary guitar players North Little Rock?s own Michael Burks who will be joined by Larry McCray and Carl Weathersby. That?s Friday?s impressive lineup on the main stage but nearby on the Houston Stackhouse acoustic stage don?t miss Louisiana wizard Eugene (Hideaway) Bridges and Mississippi bluesmen Bill Abel Cadillac John and Jimmy (Duck) Holmes. Bridges also appears at noon Saturday on the main stage followed by Alabama bluesman Willie King and Terry Evans from Los Angeles. There?s plenty more on Saturday:Anson Funderburgh and the Rockets (without the late great Sam Myers) Robert Lockwood Junior Band (without Robert). Then it?s 70ish Hubert Sumlin (Howlin? Wolf?s guitarist) and Helena native Willie (Big Eyes) Smith (Muddy Waters? drummer).</p>

Recently we visited SPE on a Saturday night and itseemed that Kolkata?s music lovers have gathered there to listen toSaturday Night Blues and Insomnia. Insomnia was performing aftera long time and their fans cheered them on. The evening of course started withSaturday Night Blues belting out some popular songs. As Andy Preston from Londonwent up and jammed with them people clapped and broke into a jig.

The reason so many &#8220;back to basics&#8221; records fall on their faces is that the songs just aren&#8217;t there and consequently fans are left regretting their nostalgic wishes. &#8220;Magic&#8221; however is largely apolitical which certainly wouldn&#8217;t be a strike against the record as long as it possessed some other source of vitality&#8230; &#8221; Thanks to producer Brendan &#8216;Brien&#8217;s good work &#8220;Devils &amp; Dust&#8221; is considerably more tuneful than either especially the first single &#8220;All the Way Home&#8221; &#8212; the poppiest Springsteen has sounded in eons. Springsteen follows up &#8220;All the Way Home&#8221; with &#8220;Reno&#8221; a beautiful-sounding murmur of a song. Springsteen picks a country-blues guitar and sings in a voice somewhere between John Prine and Bob Dylan rough enough to be hard to follow. Pay attention and you&#8217;ll realize that in contrast to the pretty sounds &#8220;Reno&#8221; is a very ribald song about a night with a prostitute. Redemption does not arrive either in &#8220;Reno&#8221; or most of the other songs on &#8220;Devils &amp; Dust. &#8221; But this isn&#8217;t an album about redemption so much as about acceptance and trying to keep going. &#8212; David Menconi  Posted at 08:32 am by davidmenconi in.</p>
