Bukka White - Miss Leola

Miss Leola Morris was the longtime love and domestic partner to the legendary blues Balladeer and pioneer Booker T. Washington White. Mentor to his young cousin, BB King, Booker followed the model of the great Charlie Patton, but formed his own unique and incomparable style of blues storytelling. Here is the legend on video, singing about his sweetheart. A subject dear to many blues men, and also a source of their blues.

Poor Boy - Lomax Prison Recording

Recorded by Alan Lomax in 1939, picture taken by Jack Delano. Sorry if any confusion was caused over this though the song and the picture are unrelated, I just like the picture so thought it was some what fitting for a song recorded in prison :) This song is by Bukka White, though i wasn't 100% sure of this when I first uploaded this as I lifted it from a large archive of LOC recordings and it didn't have an artist listed.

Bukka White - When Can I Change My Clothes?

www.youtube.com Artist: Bukka White Album: The Sonet Blues Story Recorded: 1963 Booker T. Washington White (November 12, 1906 -- February 26, 1977[1]) was a delta blues guitarist and singer. "Bukka" was not a nickname, but a phonetic misspelling of White's given name Booker, by his second (1937) record label (Vocalion). White himself disliked the spelling "Bukka" and preferred to be called "Booker". Born Booker T. Washington White between Aberdeen and Houston, Mississippi, he gave his cousin BB King, a Stella guitar, King's first guitar. White himself is remembered as a player of National steel guitars. He also played, but was less adept at, the piano. White started his career playing the fiddle at square dances. He claims to have met Charlie Patton early on, although some doubt has been cast upon this;[2] Regardless, Patton was a large influence on White. White typically played slide guitar, in an open tuning. He was one of the few, along with Skip James, to use a crossnote tuning in E minor, which he may have learned, as James did, from Henry Stuckey. He first recorded for the Victor Records label in 1930. His recordings for Victor, like those of many other bluesmen, fluctuated between country blues and gospel numbers. His gospel songs were done in the style of Blind Willie Johnson, with a female singer accentuating the last phrase of each line.[3] Nine years later, while serving time for assault, he recorded for folklorist John Lomax.

Son House And Bukka White - Masters Of The Country Blues (Part 1).wmv

www.youtube.com This documentary was released in 1990 but the material is from 60's. Masters of the country blues has many episodes, on this episode we enjoy the music and performances of legendary Son House and Bukka White. Sometimes music is entertainment, sometimes it's history, and sometimes it's both. Among the recent multitude of blues reissues, recent releases from Yazoo are definitely both. Videos from the Masters of the Country Blues series feature brief but welcome performances by some seminal artists - Son House, Bukka White, the Rev. Gary Davis, Sonny Terry, Mance Lipscomb, and Lightning Hopkins. The Seattle Folklore society recorded the material in the late '60s, the tapes were saved, converted to film, and are now available on home video. Each tape features two artists, linked by geography and, consequently, musical approaches. The Mississippi delta is well represented by Son House and bukka White. Son is a true legendary slide guitarist and singer of frightening intensity. When Robert Johnson copped licks and lyrics from House's "Walking Blues" and "Preaching the Blues," he got a lesson in emotional depth as well - Son always sang for keeps. Son opens his set with a burning version of "Death Letter Blues," playing a steel-body National guitar, and, though in his late '60s, he snaps strings and growls lyrics with the fervor of a man truly possessed. House, who wavered between temptations of the blues life and a calling as a preacher, follows with an a <b>...</b>

Parchman Farm Blues (Bukka White)

Here's an old Booker T. Washington White (aka Bukka White) originally recorded in 1940. In this song, I use open G tuning instead of open D on the original recording. I also use a glass slide, which I still need to work on. Parchman Farm is the nickname for Mississippi State Penitentiary, where Booker served time. Other famous inmates include Son House, Vernon Presley (Elvis's father), and Stokely Carmichael.
