Have you seen the City of Chicago's multimedia tour narrated by Buddy Guy? You can find the 50-minute audio tour,"Home of the Blues," available here http://64.78.16.63/citytours/chicago/blues.html in English, German, Japanese, Mandarin Chinese and Spanish.

The tour uses photos, video, music clips and an interactive map to tell the history of the blues in Chicago. You can experience the tour on your own computer or by downloading it to a portable media player. The tour covers these important Chicago landmarks:

1. Buddy Guy’s Legends – When Buddy Guy opened this club in 1989, he wanted it to have the feel of a dark, authentic storefront music joint, an experience like going to a club when the Chicago blues were born.

2. The Illinois Central Depot – Once Chicago’s largest train station, the Illinois Central Station became known as the Black Ellis Island, where many southern African American’s introduction to Chicago.

3. Maxwell Street – Alive with business in the Maxwell Street market, musicians congregated here and played the music that defined several eras of the Chicago blues.

4. Vee-Jay Records – Before Motown there was Vee-Jay Records, the largest and most powerful black-owned record label in America, recording the greats of R& B, doo-wop, and jazz in their studio on what was then known as ‘record row’ on Michigan Avenue.

5. Chess Records, Michigan Avenue – Generations of musicians have come to pay homage at the place where all the greats of the Chicago blues tradition – Muddy Waters, Howlin’ Wolf, Koko Taylor, to name a few – recorded their hits. Today, the building is home to the Blues Heaven Foundation started by blues legend Willie Dixon, whose mission is to promote and document the blues, educate children about its history, and to support working musicians

6. The State Street Stroll – In the 1920s and 30s, people would dress their best and stroll down the street while music poured from the theaters, cafes, and “black and tan” nightclubs that lined the strip, notably the Pekin Theater, the Plantation Club, and the Apex Club.

7. 47th Street – Now known as the ‘Chicago Blues District,’ this was the location of the famous 708 Club, one of the creative incubators responsible for transforming a kind of rural country blues into the highly-charged electrified blues unique to Chicago.

8. The Blues Brothers Mural – Created for the well-known movie, “The Blues Brothers,” this site was the home of “Ray’s Music Exchange,” run by none other than Ray Charles in the film. The mural is an homage to the neighborhood’s musical heritage.

9. Chess Records, Cottage Grove Street – The Chess brothers built their company in several storefront locations, including this one where Chuck Berry cut his demo for “Maybelline.”

10. The Original ‘House of Blues’ – Muddy Waters’ house was a community center for the blues. Muddy often took in struggling musicians and would stage impromptu jam sessions on the front steps.

Through Buddy Guy’s insider perspective and interviews with blues musicians and historians, visitors experience the Chicago blues historic and societal relevance, the worldwide impact on music and culture, and the city’s contemporary scene. Incorporating archival photos, music clips, and video, the tour highlights ten historic locations including Maxwell Street, Chess Records, and Muddy Water’s former home. Listeners, from blues club aficionados to those less familiar with the Chicago blues sound, will discover something new from the explanation of Chicago blues and profiles of five Chicago blues innovators: Jimmy Yancey, Tampa Red, Willie Dixon, Muddy Waters, and Koko Taylor.

In addition, the tour illustrates how Chicago continues to influence the international blues sound. Visitors can experience “Sweet Home Chicago” at the city’s many music clubs, including Buddy Guy’s Legends. Celebrating its 25th anniversary this June 5-8, 2008, the annual Chicago Blues Festival is the largest free blues festival in the world and draws over 800,000 visitors. Also, the Chicago Blues Archives at the city’s Harold Washington Library preserves archival recordings of performances unavailable anywhere else.

In six months, nearly 100,000 people have listened to the tour. It was a featured podcast on iTunes in September, and it received a 2007 MUSE Award from the American Association of Museums.

Бадди играет в конце :)

"Looking back, my journey has brought me into proximity with some of the great masters of my profession, and all of them took the time to show me something of their craft, even if they weren't aware of it. Perhaps the most rewarding relationship I have had with any of these great players has been with Buddy Guy. In all the years that I have known him, he has never really changed, and we have always remained great friends. In the musical sense, it was he who showed me the way forward, by example. The combination of wildness and finesse that his playing encompasses is totally unique, and has allowed players from the rock genre to approach the blues from an unfettered perspective. In other words, he plays free, from the heart, acknowledging no boundaries." © E.Clapton 2007
