1918 Elmore James - 100er Geburtstag

Wer war Elmore James?


James Elmore, König der Slide-Gitarre (imago / United Archives International James Elmore)

Der König der Slide-Gitarre

Alfried Schmitz schreibt dazu:

Mit seiner markanten Spieltechnik wurde der Gitarrist Elmore James zum Vorbild für viele Musiker, etwa den Rolling-Stones-Gitarrist Brian Jones, Jimi Hendrix oder Eric Clapton. James, der heute vor hundert Jahren geboren wurde, ist inzwischen aber fast in Vergessenheit geraten.
