Playing for Change Heads to the “Crossroads” on Latest “Song around the World”

There’s but one place music lovers can revel in the magic of a Moussa Diakite electric-guitar solo in Mali giving way to Sierra Hull’s mandolin in the United States - and that’s at Robert Johnson’s “Crossroads.”

The number that launched music’s most-enduring myth is the subject of Playing for Change’s latest “Song around the World.” And it’s a doozy, as it grafts such blues players and singers as Vasti Jackson, Cedric Burnside, Christone “Kingfish” Ingram and Keb’ Mo’ to bluegrass’ Hull and Charlie Warsham and adds sonic exotica in the form of Ismail Benaddi’s karkabas, Érica Sá’s pandeiro, Paulo Heman’s guiro and more. The result is yet more proof music is the universal language.

From Jackson’s solo intro to the global orchestra melding sounds that shouldn’t mesh into a thrilling aural tapestry, this “Crossroads” is both literally smack dab in the middle of Johnson’s Mississippi and stretched across the globe.

He’d be gobsmacked at what his song - and his legend - have become.

R.L. Burnside played the harmonica and dabbled with playing guitar at the age of 16 learned mostly from Mississippi Fred McDowell. He credited singing at church and fife-and-drum picnics as influences in his music, along with Muddy Waters, Lightnin' Hopkins, and John Lee Hooker as influences later on in life. R.L. had a powerful, expressive voice, that did not fail with old age but rather grew richer, and he played both electric and acoustic guitar, with and without a slide. He was the grandfather to Cedric Burnside.

R.L. Burnside died September 1, 2005 in Memphis, Tennessee at the age of 78.

Hey Tumblr,

Feeling electric today. Have a gig coming up on Wednesday that's a significant deal for me and my community. It'll be nothing but a good time and I'm buzzing with excitement!

About the gig: I'll be playing ambient Blues & Jazz/Rock & Roll at the 'End of The Year [2024] Scrapped Magazine Party' from 5-9PM at a local venue in Fort Collins, Colorado. I've been working with Scrapped Magazine this past year and it's changed my life! Wrote two concert reviews (up on my Substack) for Scrapped and have some drawings/illustrations I've shared in the magazine. I'm still at odds with defining myself as an artist and in a way resent labeling my work, but everything I've done in scrapped is like little glimmers of joy for me. Never would've imagined I'd actually be doing any of this. As I've head manifestation coaches say, living my "wish fulfilled"

Went/going through the motions to prepare for Wednesday: Promoting the event to friends and colleagues, practicing by myself and with my team, playing at open mics, playing at a live film scoring of the 1986 film Milo and Otis #deafdogdojo, stepping into spiritual growth, and making friends. It's been fun work but exhausting. Overwhelmed for sure but all my effort is to make this whole music thing I'm doing into my job - and I have faith in the process!

Fighting off toxic attitudes and expectations from (myself) [and] others and accepting the things that haven't worked out exactly like my wishes/prayers/dreams and fantasies. Really, there's a sense of my imagination being at odds with reality as I shape a life I want to live. In the words of Silver the Hedgehog in the 2011 video game Sonic Generations, "I'm an optimist, but I'm also a realist." Also I'm pessimist and suspect I'm autistic. Having fun though!

Check out my concert reviews on Substack. I've written about Satellite Pilot, Cedric Burnside, and Xiu Xiu - also listen to all of their music. Buy Scrapped Magazine! You can subscribe or buy single -current - issues online. Scrapped is on IG @scrappedmagazine and 2025 is gearing up to be a big year for the publication.

Thanks for letting me vent to you T. I know that you're a internet platform and don't give a shit that I talk to you, but writing my thoughts out in a letter/diary format helps me to organize thoughts in my brain. I'll let you know how the gig on Wednesday goes!

Yours, Will

GRAMMYS 2025 (Part 1)

So, the nominees for the Grammy Awards have been announced. The 67th ceremony will take place on February 2, 2025. Let's see what's going on in the blues categories.

BEST CONTEMPORARY BLUES ALBUM.

- Joe Bonamassa

tops the list of nominees with his 16th studio album last year, "Blues Deluxe Vol. 2". Joe has previously been nominated for a Grammy three times, including in this category for the album "Royal Tea".

"The contrast between a brash 26-year-old and a solid 46-year-old is significant. Is the fire burning as brightly as before? Do I still have the same thirst for creativity? Am I good enough to pay homage to the heroes of my songs? The answer lies somewhere in this album."

- Shemekia Copeland

participates in two more nominations besides this one: "Best American Roots Song" and "Best Americana Roots Performance", and all of them for the album "Blame It On Eve", which we recently introduced you to. Shemekia has previously received five Grammy nominations.

- Steve Cropper,

legendary guitarist, producer and songwriter, twice Grammy winner in 1968 and 1994 and winner of six nominations. Few are able to create new bands at the age of 80, but Steve Cropper is nominated for a Grammy in this category for the second time with his rock and soul quintet Steve Cropper & The Midnight Hour, for the debut album "Fire It Up" in 2021 and for the second album "Friendlytown" this year. Cropper recruited Billy Gibbons, Brian May and Tim Montana. "If your heart doesn't shake at the first bars of this album, it means you're already dead," Steve jokes.

- Ruthie Foster

and the album "Mileage". The tenth studio album by a folk-blues celebrity is a reflection on a life full of triumphs and losses. This is the story of the musical journey that led the "little black girl with a guitar" from singing in churches in rural Texas to numerous Grammy nominations (this is the sixth nomination) and collaborations with Bonnie Raitt, Susan Tedeschi and Derek Trax

- Antonio Vergara

and the album "The Fury". This is not just a celebration of modern blues, but a masterpiece. The famous blues guitarist, singer and producer assembled an intercontinental cast of artists to create the album. Vergara hails from Ecuador and combines the influences of Chicago and Texas blues with his Latin American roots, creating a timeless, boundary-breaking sound. He is the first Latin American artist to be nominated for a Grammy in the Best Contemporary Blues Album category. Joe Bonamassa added the song "My Lucky Mojo" from this album to his personal Spotify playlist.

- Cedric Burnside

and the album "Hill Country Love". Cedric is the grandson of the famous delta bluesman R.L. Burnside, and from the age of 13 he began to tour with his grandfather as a drummer (by the way, he has several Blues Music Award awards in this category). At the age of 30, he won the Blues Music Award in the category "Best New Artist Debut" for the 2008 album "Two Man Wrecking Crew" with Lightning Malcolm. Two more albums in 2015 and 2018 were nominated for Grammys, and "I Be Trying" won in the category "Best Traditional Blues Album" in 2022. Cedric says that hill country blues (blues of the northern Mississippi region) is in his blood. "It doesn't matter where I end up: if I move to Australia or France, I'll still stay hill country. You can't take that away from me.… I feel like I am hill country blues."

- The Fabulous Thunderbirds

and the album "Struck Down". The band, which was founded in 1974 in Texas by Jimmy Vaughn, inviting Harper and vocalist Kim Wilson, who remains its only permanent member. In 1979-1983, the band released 4 albums, recognized as one of the most significant recordings of the "white blues", but not commercially very successful. In 1986, she won the Blues Music Award in the category "Band of the Year" and was twice nominated for a Grammy in 1987. Jimmy left the band in 1989 to record a joint album with Stevie Ray "Family Style". The recording of the album "Struck Down" was attended by Alvin Bishop, Bonnie Raitt, Mick Fleetwood, Keb Mo, Taj Mahal, Steve Strongman and famous music artist zydeco Teggapse Simien

- Sue Foley

and the album "One Guitar Woman". A solo acoustic album by a Canadian blues guitarist and singer dedicated to the "female guitar pioneers" who left their mark on music, not only in the blues: Elizabeth Cotten, Memphis Minnie, Rosetta Tharp, etc. Sue also wrote the book Guitar Woman. In 2001, Foley won the Juno Award (the Canadian equivalent of the Grammy), received 17 Maple Blues Awards, was nominated several times for Blues Music Awards and twice won this award in 2020 and 2023.

- The band "Little Feat"

and the album "Sam's Place". The band, founded in 1969 in California, performed eclectic blues rock with elements of country rock, southern rock, rhythm and blues and soul. Among the many rock bands of the 70s, she stood out for her original sound and high performance skills. In 1979, after the death of their leader Lowell George, the band broke up. The reunion took place in 1987. The last album "Rooster Rag" was released in 2012, and it was the last to feature guitarist and vocalist Paul Barrere (died in 2019). Paul wrote the band's hits such as Skin It Back, Time Loves a Hero and Old Folks Boogie. And suddenly, in May of this year, a new album was released, where all the leading vocal parts were performed by Sam Clayton. He is a percussionist and backing vocalist, in the band since 1972. The album consists of cover versions of famous blues standards, except for the opening track.

- Taj Mahal

and his sextet with the album "Swingin' Live at The Church in Tulsa".

There is no need to introduce this outstanding bluesman. He was nominated for a Grammy 9 times, won this award three times, and in the category "Best Contemporary Blues Album". And at the beginning of this year, at the famous Tulsa studio, a new album was recorded in front of a live audience in a typical genre for a musician, combining a variety of styles.
