King). It’s a story well-told in filmmaker Bob Sarles’ 2021 documentary \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8X1n58B9Dw\">\u003cem>Born in Chicago\u003c/em>\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 1960s also saw Hooker connecting with the blues-besotted cohort of young British musicians on the swinging London scene, and it’s no coincidence that the Yardbirds, the Spencer Davis Group and the Animals all recorded his songs.

The city’s dwindling Black population is another challenge, but the story is similar all over the region. Oakland long boasted a more vital and influential blues scene than San Francisco, anchoring an East Bay soul archipelago that stretched from Richmond and Berkeley out to Camp Stoneman in Pittsburg, and almost all of the clubs and joints that once hosted the blues are gone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the music’s inextricable roots in Black culture continue to manifest in various guises. \u003ca href=\"https://www.fayecarol.com/\">The Dynamic Miss Faye Carol\u003c/a> provides an essential link to the glory days of the East Bay scenes wherever she performs (like her\u003ca href=\"https://secure.thefreight.org/11867/black-womens-roots-festival\"> Black Women’s Roots Festival\u003c/a>, Nov. 27 at Freight & Salvage). Oakland blues vocalist Terrie Odabi has carved out an international career over the past decade, and some of the Bay Area’s best jazz vocalists, like Kim Nalley and Tiffany Austin, make a point of including blues as an essential thread in jazz’s elastic fabric. \u003ca href=\"http://littlevillagefoundation.com/\">The Little Village Foundation\u003c/a> label, created by veteran blues keyboardist and John Lee Hooker sideman Jim Pugh, has boosted the careers of several Bay Area blues artists, like Mumbai-born harmonica player Aki Kumar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2EG6svjz0w\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, the music’s center of gravity continues to shift away from San Francisco. Yoshi’s keeps blues in the musical mix, with shows like the Nov. 21 \u003ca href=\"https://yoshis.com/events/buy-tickets/bay-area-harmonica-convergence-1/detail\">Bay Area Harmonica Convergence\u003c/a>. Norwegian-born San Jose guitarist and recording engineer Kid Andersen has turned his \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/Greaseland/\">Greaseland Studios\u003c/a> into the top spot for Bay Area blues acts to document their music (while working hand-in-hand with Little Village). San Jose’s \u003ca href=\"https://poorhousebistro.com/\">Poor House Bistro\u003c/a> just relocated — literally the entire building — to Little Italy, to make way for Google’s massive new downtown development. Blues great Angela Strehli’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.ranchonicasio.com/\">Rancho Nicasio\u003c/a> is an important outpost in the North Bay, while the biggest blues bills tend to take place at Vallejo’s Empress Theatre.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s the same thing in Seattle,” Cray said. “There used to be a bunch of clubs in town. Now we always hit the outskirts, where there might be the theaters and some of the clubs. We’re not downtown in places where it used it happen.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In San Francisco, Myron Mu has kept \u003ca href=\"http://sfblues.weebly.com/saloon-schedule.html\">The Saloon in North Beach\u003c/a>, the city’s oldest venue, in business presenting blues seven nights a week. The city’s premiere club, \u003ca href=\"https://biscuitsandblues.com/\">Biscuits & Blues\u003c/a>, still hasn’t reopened since it was forced to shutter in 2019 by a persistent plumbing problem and an ensuing legal struggle with the neighboring Jack In the Box — but that might finally be coming to an end, said owner Steven Suen said. More than optimistic, he sounded downright philosophic about a musical tradition born out of a need to find solace and communal release in hard times.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The blues as a form of music will never die,” said Suen, who was born in Hong Kong and ended up buying the club after he started managing the venue in 2006. “People keep going back to the roots, figuring out how that music comes about. It will always have a place. It’s not a popular thing, but once people experience it they’ll find something special.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12127869\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"78\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-400x39.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-768x75.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"A new reissue of John Lee Hooker's 1989 album 'The Healer' recalls the city's active blues scene.","status":"publish","parent":0,"modified":1705006229,"stats":{"hasAudio":false,"hasVideo":true,"hasChartOrMap":false,"iframeSrcs":[],"hasGoogleForm":false,"hasGallery":false,"hasHearkenModule":false,"hasPolis":false,"paragraphCount":23,"wordCount":1606},"headData":{"title":"Once Booming, Where Are the Blues in San Francisco Now? | KQED","description":"A new reissue of John Lee Hooker's 1989 album 'The Healer' recalls the city's active blues scene.","ogTitle":"","ogDescription":"","ogImgId":"","twTitle":"","twDescription":"","twImgId":"","schema":{"@context":"http://schema.org","@type":"Article","headline":"Once Booming, Where Are the Blues in San Francisco Now?","datePublished":"2022-10-26T18:43:33.000Z","dateModified":"2024-01-11T20:50:29.000Z","image":"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/KQED-OG-Image@1x.png"}},"sticky":false,"templateType":"standard","featuredImageType":"standard","excludeFromSiteSearch":"Include","path":"/arts/13920900/once-booming-where-are-the-blues-in-san-francisco-now","audioTrackLength":null,"parsedContent":[{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003cp>No take on San Francisco is more clichéd than proclaiming that the year of one’s arrival was a golden age from which the city has steadily descended, shedding its luster with each passing season.

The city’s dwindling Black population is another challenge, but the story is similar all over the region. Oakland long boasted a more vital and influential blues scene than San Francisco, anchoring an East Bay soul archipelago that stretched from Richmond and Berkeley out to Camp Stoneman in Pittsburg, and almost all of the clubs and joints that once hosted the blues are gone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the music’s inextricable roots in Black culture continue to manifest in various guises. \u003ca href=\"https://www.fayecarol.com/\">The Dynamic Miss Faye Carol\u003c/a> provides an essential link to the glory days of the East Bay scenes wherever she performs (like her\u003ca href=\"https://secure.thefreight.org/11867/black-womens-roots-festival\"> Black Women’s Roots Festival\u003c/a>, Nov. 27 at Freight & Salvage). Oakland blues vocalist Terrie Odabi has carved out an international career over the past decade, and some of the Bay Area’s best jazz vocalists, like Kim Nalley and Tiffany Austin, make a point of including blues as an essential thread in jazz’s elastic fabric. \u003ca href=\"http://littlevillagefoundation.com/\">The Little Village Foundation\u003c/a> label, created by veteran blues keyboardist and John Lee Hooker sideman Jim Pugh, has boosted the careers of several Bay Area blues artists, like Mumbai-born harmonica player Aki Kumar.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/W2EG6svjz0w'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/W2EG6svjz0w'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Meanwhile, the music’s center of gravity continues to shift away from San Francisco. Yoshi’s keeps blues in the musical mix, with shows like the Nov. 21 \u003ca href=\"https://yoshis.com/events/buy-tickets/bay-area-harmonica-convergence-1/detail\">Bay Area Harmonica Convergence\u003c/a>. Norwegian-born San Jose guitarist and recording engineer Kid Andersen has turned his \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/Greaseland/\">Greaseland Studios\u003c/a> into the top spot for Bay Area blues acts to document their music (while working hand-in-hand with Little Village). San Jose’s \u003ca href=\"https://poorhousebistro.com/\">Poor House Bistro\u003c/a> just relocated — literally the entire building — to Little Italy, to make way for Google’s massive new downtown development. Blues great Angela Strehli’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.ranchonicasio.com/\">Rancho Nicasio\u003c/a> is an important outpost in the North Bay, while the biggest blues bills tend to take place at Vallejo’s Empress Theatre.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s the same thing in Seattle,” Cray said. “There used to be a bunch of clubs in town. Now we always hit the outskirts, where there might be the theaters and some of the clubs. We’re not downtown in places where it used it happen.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In San Francisco, Myron Mu has kept \u003ca href=\"http://sfblues.weebly.com/saloon-schedule.html\">The Saloon in North Beach\u003c/a>, the city’s oldest venue, in business presenting blues seven nights a week. The city’s premiere club, \u003ca href=\"https://biscuitsandblues.com/\">Biscuits & Blues\u003c/a>, still hasn’t reopened since it was forced to shutter in 2019 by a persistent plumbing problem and an ensuing legal struggle with the neighboring Jack In the Box — but that might finally be coming to an end, said owner Steven Suen said. More than optimistic, he sounded downright philosophic about a musical tradition born out of a need to find solace and communal release in hard times.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The blues as a form of music will never die,” said Suen, who was born in Hong Kong and ended up buying the club after he started managing the venue in 2006. “People keep going back to the roots, figuring out how that music comes about. It will always have a place. It’s not a popular thing, but once people experience it they’ll find something special.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12127869\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"78\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-400x39.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/09/Q.Logo_.Break_-768x75.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/arts/13920900/once-booming-where-are-the-blues-in-san-francisco-now","authors":["86"],"categories":["arts_1","arts_69"],"tags":["arts_638","arts_10342","arts_5732","arts_2996","arts_4107"],"featImg":"arts_13920896","label":"arts"},"arts_13874853":{"type":"posts","id":"arts_13874853","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"arts","id":"13874853","score":null,"sort":[1582916450000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"the-queen-of-the-harlem-of-the-west-brought-glamour-and-stars-to-the-fillmore","title":"The Queen of the 'Harlem of the West' Brought Glamour and Stars to the Fillmore","publishDate":1582916450,"format":"standard","headTitle":"The Queen of the ‘Harlem of the West’ Brought Glamour and Stars to the Fillmore | KQED","labelTerm":{"term":8978,"site":"arts"},"content":"\u003cp>She was considered the Queen of the Fillmore, back when the neighborhood was still nicknamed the “Harlem of the West.” She was one of the \u003ca href=\"http://beyondchron.org/heard-fillmore-icon-leola-king-passes/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">first women of color\u003c/a> to ever own and run a Bay Area nightclub.

There are three tours of the exhibit every Sunday in October, and the Camron-Stanford staff are incredibly knowledgeable and enthusiastic, so it’s always a fun, if rather gothic, way to spend the afternoon. \u003ca href=\"https://cshouse.org/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Details here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Darius Jones\u003c/strong>: Here’s a chance to see a rising saxophone star from New York who’s been praised all over the country for his innovative, poetic use of the instrument.

Most remarkable was how she drew out the deep spiritual grooves of Simon’s “Bridge” in March of that year at concert promoter Bill Graham’s Fillmore West, a rock and roll palace where Hendrix’s psychedelia and Grateful Dead jam band bacchanalia had been flourishing since 1968. Resplendent in her flowing, earth-toned gown and a supremely Haight-Ashbury slouchy hat, she took a seat at the piano and became the first African-American woman artist to headline a concert event at the venue, home of the “long hairs” as some would refer to it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”NP2k2sRmZaUEykroiK5ox8yGTnIQTXN5″]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The journey that Aretha takes us on this song is one in which she wraps her arms around an ode to deeply enduring friendship and solidarity in times of trial. This was a moment too in which she also tapped into the traces of songwriter Paul Simon’s love of gospel greats the Swan Silvertones and their own re-reading of the spiritual “Mary Don’t You Weep,” itself a tune that folds together Old and New Testament tales of exodus and re-birth. It was a tale she surely knew well, as the daughter of legendary preacher C.L. Franklin, and she invoked all that knowledge to mine the “Bridge” for its many cultural and spiritual resonances. Along the way, just as she did with Otis Redding’s “Respect,” she made it all her own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like fellow Detroiter Diana Ross, Aretha makes a bid to “reach out and touch somebody’s hand” across an ocean of ardent, colorful tie-dye clad fans. And in doing so, those Fillmore West performances — released just a few months later as her second live album — became instantly historic in that they assert the multiracial and cross-gender possibilities of early 1970s rock and roll counterculture that so often went unrealized. As she stretches herself out in the lyrics of the song, the Queen laid the ground for making deep well statements about the politics of trust and coalition building in the face of historical uncertainty, as black liberation changed its pace and tenor, as the anti-war effort grew evermore dire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over three sold out nights, Aretha Franklin would play in the round with King Curtis and the Kingpins, one of the tightest rhythm sections other than James Brown’s JBs, setting off each evening on her own distinct version of Simon and Garfunkel’s “Bridge Over Troubled Water,” a song that marked what turned out to be a crucial period of her transformation as a musician.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/7IExZv-mgrw\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Go ahead ‘Retha!” The adoring crowd embraces Aretha the vocalist and pianist as she hails her powerhouse band, a group featuring late great Curtis Ousley on saxophone and the convivial Billy Preston sitting in as guest player at the organ. “Play Billy!” Aretha calls out to her fellow musician as her incandescent cover slowly unfolds, as she wades ever so gracefully into still waters that run deep, as she moves gently and yet fearlessly into the center of Preston’s thick, bright, atmospheric keyboard universe flanked by her backup singers, the Sweethearts of Soul.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aretha’s vocals radiate with the effulgent heat and the ethereal energy of the gospel tradition as she worries lines, improvises impassioned moans and carefully, elegantly puts to use a thing called the melisma, the artful, spiritually-rooted technique of stringing a series of notes together in one syllable so as to stretch out one’s vocal phrasing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hanging on words, pulling out phrases and turning them over and over so as to wring them for multiple meanings, Aretha here lets us know, without breaking a sweat, that she is still the innovator who birthed a brand of soul music that made spectacularly audible existential and spiritual self-discovery and affirmation, all at the site of her virtuosic vocalization. The philosophical intelligence of her musical phrasing and narrative interpretation set a new standard of excellence in pop music.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>“When you’re down and out / When you look up and see yourself on the street / When evening falls so hard / I’ll be there to comfort you / I’ll take your part / I’ll take it when darkness comes / And there’s no one you love around.”\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Aretha the conduit. Aretha the medium. Aretha the surrogate figure for the masses. She was, especially at this point in her career, between 1971-1973 (called by critics, her “artistically mature period”), a kind of performer who was able to “shap[e] her intimacies with the skill of a dramatist,” as Ann Powers has beautifully put it. Like a great “method actor” who slips into the specific landscape of a particular song to fully inhabit it, Aretha both disappears into the emotional terrain of her “bridge” and unveils a protagonist who expresses herself in the most intense emotive registers.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>“Don’t trouble the water… Why don’t ya just let it be”\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Yes, there are rumors that Simon wrote “Bridge Over Troubled Water” “for Aretha” or “with Aretha in mind.” All speculation, but certainly we can hear the ways that the song would operate as a crossroads in her career, a prescient recording that would forecast her historic transition, her own personal and professional bridge from pop superstardom \u003cem>back\u003c/em> to fully immersing herself in the music of the church.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Bridge Over Troubled Water” is, after all, a gateway song — not simply a cover of a gorgeously wrought proclamation of harmony, intimacy and understanding shared between two New York City folkies — but a song that reaches back to a gospel classic which, in turn, draws its inspiration from the Bible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/lMvFKpqnsWU\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Listen carefully to the Swan Silvertones’ classic version of “Mary Don’t You Weep,” and one hears the famous line that would inspire Paul Simon to write a song about a bridge as wells as the seeds from Exodus that inspired that line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Mary Don’t You Weep” gives us the story, from the Gospel of John, of Mary of Bethany, a woman who, along with her sister Martha, mourns over the death of her brother Lazarus. When Jesus arrives at their house, he meets with both sisters. Before raising their brother to new life, he instructs Martha to draw on hope and faith. To Mary he offers added counsel and addresses her tears: “When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So sing the Swan Silvertones: \u003cem>“Oh Mary don’t you weep. Tell Martha not to moan.”\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Mary Don’t You Weep” started out as a Negro spiritual, entrusted in the 20th century to the likes of the Fisk Jubilee Singers to deliver the Good Word to the segregated masses, and it is a song that has subsequently been picked up by artists as varied as Pete Seeger, Nat King Cole, Bruce Springsteen, Aaron Neville and Take 6 throughout the 20th century .\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Aaron Cohen points out in his book on Aretha’s \u003cem>Amazing Grace\u003c/em>, the version that would seemingly have the most overt impact on her is the 1958 recording \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5UDBf9Q2bc\">by The Caravans\u003c/a>, the phenomenally influential gospel group of the ’50s and ’60s, founded by Albertine Walker and a launching pad for a run of future superstars of the genre: Shirley Caesar, James Cleveland and Inez Andrews to name but a few.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the Swan Silvertones’ version from 1959 is the only one that features the marvelous lead singer Claude Jeter’s forthright interpolation: “I’ll be a bridge over deep water if you trust in my name.” It was a line that would stick with Paul Simon and one with roots to the greatest escape tale of all time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sings Jeter, \u003cem>“Pharoah’s Army got drowned in the sea, but Jesus said Mary, your little sister Martha don’t have to moan …. Now can I get a witness.”\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Swan Silvertones version of “Mary Don’t You Weep” folds into its musical story the narrative of Exodus, one of the most famous passages in all of the Bible — when Moses, led by the Lord, saw the Israelites out of slavery in Egypt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Mary Don’t You Weep” bridges this holy miracle into the story of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead in the Gospel of John. In doing so, it is a song that testifies to the wonder of heavenly power to comfort, to protect and to revive mortal souls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>“I’ll be a bridge over deep water if you trust in my name.” \u003c/em>Jeter’s line recalls the second half of the Exodus passage when the Israelites traveled for three days, battling heat and sun, thirsting for water. With their faith tested, as the tale goes, the “people grumbled against Moses, saying, ‘What are we to drink?’ And the Lord turned bitter water into the sweetest of drink, assuring the people that ‘I am the LORD, who heals you.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many people remember this passage from Exodus (with or without the Cecil B. DeMille special effects from the \u003cem>Ten Commandments \u003c/em>film) because of the way that it so spectacularly showcases the might and power of the Almighty, bringing the waters of the Red Sea over Pharaoh’s army, turning bitter water into the sweetest of drink.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oft-overlooked yet just as crucial to the Israelites deliverance are the women on hand who witness and musically testify to the extraordinary turn of events in their midst:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“Then Miriam the prophetess, Aaron’s sister, took a tambourine in her hand, and all the women followed her, with tambourines and dancing. Miriam sang to them: ‘Sing to the LORD, for he is highly exalted. The horse and its rider he has hurled into the sea.'”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Like a bridge, Miriam and the women repeat in song this hallowed flight to freedom. With a “joyful noise,” their voices reanimate the “rock on which Moses stood” to “lead the Hebrew children through.” They are the ones who, like those sisters at the close of Toni Morrison’s \u003cem>Beloved\u003c/em>, “buil[d] voice upon voice until they found it, and when they did it was a wave of sound wide enough to sound deep water and knock the pods off chestnut trees.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We might think of how Aretha picks up the frequency of Claude Jeter singing “I’ll be your bridge over deep water if you trust my name,” so crystal clear that Paul Simon can hear his truth. And it’s she who can hear Miriam and the women’s truth as well as they amplify it, sustain it, make it manifest using “the right combination, the key, the code….”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aretha the code breaker sings through this history, and she also ultimately re-centers that history in a legacy of black women’s agency and conviction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Cohen reminds, it is Inez Andrews’ “bluesy vamp and original sermonette about Lazarus rising from the tune” in The Caravans’ version of “Mary Don’t You Weep” that Aretha would potently bring to life during the historic \u003cem>Grace\u003c/em> recordings at New Temple Missionary Baptist Church, some nine months after her Fillmore concerts. In that epic, earth-shaking performance, we hear the voice of a black woman actively folding together into one the sacred, secular and sonic histories of the black radical tradition and reminding us of the woman-centered foundations of that tradition. On “Mary,” Aretha follows the road that she’d set for herself on a bridge and carries the congregation through the storm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/KA84TNAGWJM\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is paradigmatic soul at the apex of masterful storytelling. Worth recognizing then, that if in soul performance the very of-this-earth James Brown would make famous the line “take it to the bridge” — an emphatic way of egging his band on and signaling his own virtuosic ability to carry a song from the verse to the chorus to the climax — if in these moments James Brown was announcing his gift of stamina, fierce performative determination, improvisation, and ingenuity, we hear all of this on Aretha Franklin’s \u003cem>Amazing Grace\u003c/em> as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Aretha’s stunning performance of “Mary,” alone, we hear Motor City black Baptist royalty meeting New York City Jewish folkie Simon, and we hear Simon meeting Kentucky-born coal miner turned gospel great Jeter. We hear her carrying both men back to Alabama gospel role model Inez Andrews in song, melding together the spiritual and the worldly, Old and New Testament tales of perseverance and faith. We hear her responding to the call made by Miriam, summoning those old school Biblical women’s sonic circuits of energy, and channeling and translating Inez and Paul and Claude.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>“I’ll be your bridge over deep water if you trust my name.”\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The larger lesson for me in that tiny verse in \u003cem>Exodus\u003c/em> and its various rippling echoes in The Caravans and the Swan Silvertones’ versions of “Mary,” rolling on through Aretha’s “Bridge” and on into her own \u003cem>Amazing Grace\u003c/em> performance is that Aretha Franklin is calling out to us to respond and bear witness to the foundations of her soul music revolution.

Most remarkable was how she drew out the deep spiritual grooves of Simon’s “Bridge” in March of that year at concert promoter Bill Graham’s Fillmore West, a rock and roll palace where Hendrix’s psychedelia and Grateful Dead jam band bacchanalia had been flourishing since 1968. Resplendent in her flowing, earth-toned gown and a supremely Haight-Ashbury slouchy hat, she took a seat at the piano and became the first African-American woman artist to headline a concert event at the venue, home of the “long hairs” as some would refer to it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The journey that Aretha takes us on this song is one in which she wraps her arms around an ode to deeply enduring friendship and solidarity in times of trial. This was a moment too in which she also tapped into the traces of songwriter Paul Simon’s love of gospel greats the Swan Silvertones and their own re-reading of the spiritual “Mary Don’t You Weep,” itself a tune that folds together Old and New Testament tales of exodus and re-birth. It was a tale she surely knew well, as the daughter of legendary preacher C.L. Franklin, and she invoked all that knowledge to mine the “Bridge” for its many cultural and spiritual resonances. Along the way, just as she did with Otis Redding’s “Respect,” she made it all her own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like fellow Detroiter Diana Ross, Aretha makes a bid to “reach out and touch somebody’s hand” across an ocean of ardent, colorful tie-dye clad fans. And in doing so, those Fillmore West performances — released just a few months later as her second live album — became instantly historic in that they assert the multiracial and cross-gender possibilities of early 1970s rock and roll counterculture that so often went unrealized. As she stretches herself out in the lyrics of the song, the Queen laid the ground for making deep well statements about the politics of trust and coalition building in the face of historical uncertainty, as black liberation changed its pace and tenor, as the anti-war effort grew evermore dire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over three sold out nights, Aretha Franklin would play in the round with King Curtis and the Kingpins, one of the tightest rhythm sections other than James Brown’s JBs, setting off each evening on her own distinct version of Simon and Garfunkel’s “Bridge Over Troubled Water,” a song that marked what turned out to be a crucial period of her transformation as a musician.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/7IExZv-mgrw'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/7IExZv-mgrw'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>“Go ahead ‘Retha!” The adoring crowd embraces Aretha the vocalist and pianist as she hails her powerhouse band, a group featuring late great Curtis Ousley on saxophone and the convivial Billy Preston sitting in as guest player at the organ. “Play Billy!” Aretha calls out to her fellow musician as her incandescent cover slowly unfolds, as she wades ever so gracefully into still waters that run deep, as she moves gently and yet fearlessly into the center of Preston’s thick, bright, atmospheric keyboard universe flanked by her backup singers, the Sweethearts of Soul.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aretha’s vocals radiate with the effulgent heat and the ethereal energy of the gospel tradition as she worries lines, improvises impassioned moans and carefully, elegantly puts to use a thing called the melisma, the artful, spiritually-rooted technique of stringing a series of notes together in one syllable so as to stretch out one’s vocal phrasing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hanging on words, pulling out phrases and turning them over and over so as to wring them for multiple meanings, Aretha here lets us know, without breaking a sweat, that she is still the innovator who birthed a brand of soul music that made spectacularly audible existential and spiritual self-discovery and affirmation, all at the site of her virtuosic vocalization.

She was, especially at this point in her career, between 1971-1973 (called by critics, her “artistically mature period”), a kind of performer who was able to “shap[e] her intimacies with the skill of a dramatist,” as Ann Powers has beautifully put it. Like a great “method actor” who slips into the specific landscape of a particular song to fully inhabit it, Aretha both disappears into the emotional terrain of her “bridge” and unveils a protagonist who expresses herself in the most intense emotive registers.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>“Don’t trouble the water… Why don’t ya just let it be”\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Yes, there are rumors that Simon wrote “Bridge Over Troubled Water” “for Aretha” or “with Aretha in mind.” All speculation, but certainly we can hear the ways that the song would operate as a crossroads in her career, a prescient recording that would forecast her historic transition, her own personal and professional bridge from pop superstardom \u003cem>back\u003c/em> to fully immersing herself in the music of the church.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Bridge Over Troubled Water” is, after all, a gateway song — not simply a cover of a gorgeously wrought proclamation of harmony, intimacy and understanding shared between two New York City folkies — but a song that reaches back to a gospel classic which, in turn, draws its inspiration from the Bible.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/lMvFKpqnsWU'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/lMvFKpqnsWU'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Listen carefully to the Swan Silvertones’ classic version of “Mary Don’t You Weep,” and one hears the famous line that would inspire Paul Simon to write a song about a bridge as wells as the seeds from Exodus that inspired that line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Mary Don’t You Weep” gives us the story, from the Gospel of John, of Mary of Bethany, a woman who, along with her sister Martha, mourns over the death of her brother Lazarus. When Jesus arrives at their house, he meets with both sisters. Before raising their brother to new life, he instructs Martha to draw on hope and faith. To Mary he offers added counsel and addresses her tears: “When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So sing the Swan Silvertones: \u003cem>“Oh Mary don’t you weep. Tell Martha not to moan.”\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Mary Don’t You Weep” started out as a Negro spiritual, entrusted in the 20th century to the likes of the Fisk Jubilee Singers to deliver the Good Word to the segregated masses, and it is a song that has subsequently been picked up by artists as varied as Pete Seeger, Nat King Cole, Bruce Springsteen, Aaron Neville and Take 6 throughout the 20th century .\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Aaron Cohen points out in his book on Aretha’s \u003cem>Amazing Grace\u003c/em>, the version that would seemingly have the most overt impact on her is the 1958 recording \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5UDBf9Q2bc\">by The Caravans\u003c/a>, the phenomenally influential gospel group of the ’50s and ’60s, founded by Albertine Walker and a launching pad for a run of future superstars of the genre: Shirley Caesar, James Cleveland and Inez Andrews to name but a few.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the Swan Silvertones’ version from 1959 is the only one that features the marvelous lead singer Claude Jeter’s forthright interpolation: “I’ll be a bridge over deep water if you trust in my name.” It was a line that would stick with Paul Simon and one with roots to the greatest escape tale of all time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sings Jeter, \u003cem>“Pharoah’s Army got drowned in the sea, but Jesus said Mary, your little sister Martha don’t have to moan …. Now can I get a witness.”\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Swan Silvertones version of “Mary Don’t You Weep” folds into its musical story the narrative of Exodus, one of the most famous passages in all of the Bible — when Moses, led by the Lord, saw the Israelites out of slavery in Egypt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Mary Don’t You Weep” bridges this holy miracle into the story of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead in the Gospel of John. In doing so, it is a song that testifies to the wonder of heavenly power to comfort, to protect and to revive mortal souls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>“I’ll be a bridge over deep water if you trust in my name.” \u003c/em>Jeter’s line recalls the second half of the Exodus passage when the Israelites traveled for three days, battling heat and sun, thirsting for water. With their faith tested, as the tale goes, the “people grumbled against Moses, saying, ‘What are we to drink?’ And the Lord turned bitter water into the sweetest of drink, assuring the people that ‘I am the LORD, who heals you.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many people remember this passage from Exodus (with or without the Cecil B. DeMille special effects from the \u003cem>Ten Commandments \u003c/em>film) because of the way that it so spectacularly showcases the might and power of the Almighty, bringing the waters of the Red Sea over Pharaoh’s army, turning bitter water into the sweetest of drink.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oft-overlooked yet just as crucial to the Israelites deliverance are the women on hand who witness and musically testify to the extraordinary turn of events in their midst:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“Then Miriam the prophetess, Aaron’s sister, took a tambourine in her hand, and all the women followed her, with tambourines and dancing. Miriam sang to them: ‘Sing to the LORD, for he is highly exalted. The horse and its rider he has hurled into the sea.'”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Like a bridge, Miriam and the women repeat in song this hallowed flight to freedom. With a “joyful noise,” their voices reanimate the “rock on which Moses stood” to “lead the Hebrew children through.” They are the ones who, like those sisters at the close of Toni Morrison’s \u003cem>Beloved\u003c/em>, “buil[d] voice upon voice until they found it, and when they did it was a wave of sound wide enough to sound deep water and knock the pods off chestnut trees.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We might think of how Aretha picks up the frequency of Claude Jeter singing “I’ll be your bridge over deep water if you trust my name,” so crystal clear that Paul Simon can hear his truth. And it’s she who can hear Miriam and the women’s truth as well as they amplify it, sustain it, make it manifest using “the right combination, the key, the code….”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aretha the code breaker sings through this history, and she also ultimately re-centers that history in a legacy of black women’s agency and conviction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Cohen reminds, it is Inez Andrews’ “bluesy vamp and original sermonette about Lazarus rising from the tune” in The Caravans’ version of “Mary Don’t You Weep” that Aretha would potently bring to life during the historic \u003cem>Grace\u003c/em> recordings at New Temple Missionary Baptist Church, some nine months after her Fillmore concerts. In that epic, earth-shaking performance, we hear the voice of a black woman actively folding together into one the sacred, secular and sonic histories of the black radical tradition and reminding us of the woman-centered foundations of that tradition. On “Mary,” Aretha follows the road that she’d set for herself on a bridge and carries the congregation through the storm.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/KA84TNAGWJM'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/KA84TNAGWJM'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>This is paradigmatic soul at the apex of masterful storytelling. Worth recognizing then, that if in soul performance the very of-this-earth James Brown would make famous the line “take it to the bridge” — an emphatic way of egging his band on and signaling his own virtuosic ability to carry a song from the verse to the chorus to the climax — if in these moments James Brown was announcing his gift of stamina, fierce performative determination, improvisation, and ingenuity, we hear all of this on Aretha Franklin’s \u003cem>Amazing Grace\u003c/em> as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Aretha’s stunning performance of “Mary,” alone, we hear Motor City black Baptist royalty meeting New York City Jewish folkie Simon, and we hear Simon meeting Kentucky-born coal miner turned gospel great Jeter. We hear her carrying both men back to Alabama gospel role model Inez Andrews in song, melding together the spiritual and the worldly, Old and New Testament tales of perseverance and faith. We hear her responding to the call made by Miriam, summoning those old school Biblical women’s sonic circuits of energy, and channeling and translating Inez and Paul and Claude.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>“I’ll be your bridge over deep water if you trust my name.”\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The larger lesson for me in that tiny verse in \u003cem>Exodus\u003c/em> and its various rippling echoes in The Caravans and the Swan Silvertones’ versions of “Mary,” rolling on through Aretha’s “Bridge” and on into her own \u003cem>Amazing Grace\u003c/em> performance is that Aretha Franklin is calling out to us to respond and bear witness to the foundations of her soul music revolution. Her music will forever hold the potential to bring the richest array of peoples together in a kind of humanist collectivity that, at its core, celebrates the sound of black womanhood as a site for radical social, spiritual and philosophical possibilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No time like now to take that bridge once more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2019 NPR.
