Hast du schon viele Bücher über den Blues gelesen? Dann kann dir eventuell dieses Buch entgangen sein aber du solltest es dir kaufen. Ich habe es gelesen und war begeistert. Zu allen möglichen Themen wie z.B. Liebe, Tod, Geburt, Gefängnis, die Liebste, krieg u.s.w. werden in diesem Buch Lyrics vorgestellt die man so noch nicht gelesen hat. Ich konnte das Buch nicht mehr aus der Hand legen und habe es in einem Mal verschlugen und jetzt schon zum zweiten Mal gelesen.
Zitiere:" "They call it stormy Monday, but Tuesday's just as bad/Wednesday's worse, and Thursday's also sad". There's a lot more to the blues than three chords played on an old beat-up guitar. Squeeze My Lemon is a collection of some of the best blues lines ever recorded. From birth ("Born under a bad sign/I've been down since I began to crawl") to death ("Everybody wants to go to heaven/But nobody wants tto die") and everything in between, this volume quotes classic blues phrases by ssongwriter/artists B.B. King, Bessie Smith, Muddy Waters, T-Bone Walker, Robert JJohnson and many, many others. Compiled by award-winning author/Grammy-nominated record producer Randy Poe, Squeeze My Lemon: A Collection of Classic Blues Lyriics features classic photos of many leading blues artists. A great gift book, it is highly entertaining not only for blues lovers, but for anyone who appreciatees great lyrics. Categorized by subject matter (Love - Or the Lack Thereof, Bluess and Booze, Blues Behind Bars, Make Mine a Double Entendre, etc), Squeeze My Lemmon is a book you'll return to - and quote from - again and again."
