Champion Jack Dupree • The Blues Of Champion Jack Dupree

 

These sessions were all recorded in the period 1961-64 in Copenhagen, Denmark, where Jack Dupree performed often and felt at home." Although there is humor in his music, the tunes featured here are mostly about life's hardships - especially with women, poverty, prison and alcohol. Here is the genuine and deeply-felt blues of a man who has truly known the ups and downs of life - an authentic blues veteran. The CD consists of material Dupree has written himself. These songs, Dupree says, "tell about my experience of life, or what! have seen in the lives of people around me. So I can honestly say they are REAL songs and mean something to me.'' Another great feature of these sessions is Dupree's piano playing - he was one of the last true "Barrel house" pianists.

Todas estas sesiones se grabaron en el periodo 1961-64 en Copenhague, Dinamarca, donde Jack Dupree actuaba a menudo y se sentía como en casa". Aunque hay humor en su música, las melodías que se presentan aquí tratan sobre todo de las dificultades de la vida, especialmente con las mujeres, la pobreza, la cárcel y el alcohol. Aquí está el blues genuino y profundamente sentido de un hombre que realmente ha conocido los altibajos de la vida - un auténtico veterano del blues. El CD está compuesto por material escrito por el propio Dupree. Estas canciones, dice Dupree, "hablan de mi experiencia de la vida, o de lo que he visto en las vidas de la gente que me rodea. Así que puedo decir honestamente que son canciones REALES y que significan algo para mí". Otra gran característica de estas sesiones es la forma de tocar el piano de Dupree, uno de los últimos pianistas de "Barrel house".
