About
What makes Memphis music so lasting? Why have the blues become such an iconic form of expression? What makes a bluesman? How did country and blues music merge to form rockabilly and rock 'n' roll and was Elvis the first true exponent? How did a handful of open-minded blacks and whites revolutionize soul music in the Sixties. How will these traditional musical forms - blues, rockabilly, and rock 'n' roll - remain current in the 21st century? Waking Up In Memphis answers these questions and provides a picture of the current scene, one accessible to anyone interested in Memphis music.
