Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. From the very beginning, the blues has had a close connection with the LGBTQ community. There is a long and decorated history of so-called 'dirty blues' songs, stretching back beyond the earliest attempts to capture the blues on record. The 1920s and 30s saw the release of dozens of raunchy, bawdy blues recordings aimed at a knowing LGBTQ audience.Queer Blues tells the story of the pioneering LGBTQ composers and entertainers that wrote, performed and recorded these wonderfully outlandish, life-affirming songs and chronicles, including: Bessie Smith, Ma Rainey, Josephine Baker to Frankie 'Half-Pint' Jaxon and many more.This is the definitive account of the LGBTQ trailblazers of early blues and a fascinating consideration of the intersection between music and LGBTQ history, from the award-winning Darryl W. Bullock. A long-overdue look at the history of LGBTQ communities within early blues, jazz, and soul music. Considers musicians including Ma Rainey, Bessie Smith, and Josephine Baker. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781913172527
