“I THOUGHT I HEARD ELLIOTT BAY”
by RAYMOND BARROW
Northwest blues scholar Raymond Barrow has spent most of the waking hours of his adult life researching the details behind pre-rock & roll northwest blues legends, “Joe & Okes”. These visionaries, along with their contemporaries, cultivated a unique music style, climaxing in a frenzy known as “Jokermania".
“I Thought I Heard Elliott Bay” is the presentation of Raymond
Barrow’s story and the musical works mentioned. Brad Harrington
will read excerpts from the story. Legendary NW sound engineer
Kearney Barton will be announcing the song selections as radio
personality Barney K. The music will be performed by Jack
Cook on guitar, jazzhorn & vocals, Hugh Sutton on piano, accordion
& vocals, Al Farlow on clarinet & baritone saxophone, John
Marshall on harmonica & vocals Steve Branca on bass and Dave
Hudson on drums.
