Produktinformationen zu „Louis Jordan (ePub)“
Though you may not know the man, you probably know his music. Arkansas-born Louis Jordan's songs like "e;Baby, It's Cold Outside,"e; "e;Caldonia"e; and "e;Ain't Nobody Here But Us Chickens"e; can still be heard today, decades since Jordan ruled the charts. In his five-decade career, Jordan influenced American popular music, film and more and inspired the likes of James Brown, B.B. King, Chuck Berry and Ray Charles. Known as the "e;King of the Jukeboxes,"e; he and his combo played a hybrid of jazz, swing, blues and comedy music during the big band era that became the start of R&B. In a stunning narrative portrait of Louis Jordan, author Stephen Koch contextualizes the great, forgotten musician among his musical peers, those he influenced and the musical present.
