A Taste Of Honey June 14th 2012
How very cool is the Alberta Hunter story(pic. right)-toured Europe in 1917 aged 22,recorded the blues and then from the 1950’s -through to mid 1970’s she trained and worked as a nurse and then at age 83 recorded ‘Amtrak Blues’-thats what I love about this business and then the music from the partnership of two of the greatest guitarists ever-both improvisers and instrument inventors and performers -Chet Atkins and Les Paul(pic.left)from the album ‘Chester and Lester’-irreplaceable performances-jump to Melody Gardot ensconsed in Portuguese-accented music with bossa nova and samba styled songs that take this artiste to another level on her new album-‘Tastes of Honey’ for all on EastsideFM…..
