ELECTRIFRIED - THE STORY OF THE MAXWELL STREET URBAN BLUES

My name is Susan Getgood. I’m working with the producers of a new documentary about the Chicago blues, Electrified: The Story of the Maxwell Street Urban Blues. I thought you might be interested in our new blog, Notes of the Urban Blues, where we will be writing about music, movies and, of course, the blues.

Electrified tells the definitive history of the Chicago blues. Written, directed and produced by Phil Ranstrom and narrated by actor Joe Mantegna, the film chronicles how the urban neighborhood of Maxwell Street created a unique environment of commerce and cooperation that led first to the hard-driving sound of the urban blues, and ultimately to rock and roll.

Right now, we’re doing a T-shirt giveaway, but unfortunately only for US residents. It’s a pretty cool shirt – black with the film logo which is based on the classic Fender Stratocaster.

Hope you stop by.

Best regards,


Susan
