Duke Robillard: Putting Renewed emphasis on the Blues
Here’s a quick quiz:
What do Bob Dylan, Jay McShann, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, John
Hammond, the late Jimmy Witherspoon, Dr. John, Maria Muldaur, Roomful of
Blues, and the Canadian band The Rockin’ Highliners all have in
common?
Answer: Duke Robillard. |
|
Guitarist. Bandleader. Songwriter. Singer. Producer. Session musician.
And a one-man cheering section for the blues, in all its forms and
permutations. And every one of those names has shared recording studio
space or stage time with a man who is a legend in the blues community.
The W.C. Handy Awards have named Robillard "Best Blues Guitarist" two
years in a row (2000 and 2001), B.B. King says Duke’s "one of the great
players," and the Houston Post called him "one of God’s guitarists." And
the New York Times says Robillard is "a soloist of stunning force and
originality."
