John Hurt took up the guitar at age nine and played ragtime at local parties throughout his younger years. He was discovered by Okeh Records in 1927 when they passed through his hometown of Avalon, Mississippi. He soon left and began recording in cities like Memphis and New York. Hurt played more of a soft style of Blues, had not performed in large venues until later in life when he played at the Newport Folk Festival in 1963. He was also able to release two of his best albums, “The Immortal Mississippi John Hurt” and “Last Sessions” before his death in 1966. #MississippiJohnHurt #piedmontblues #music #Blues #bluessociety #keepingthebluesalive #guitarist #piedmontbluesmusician #bluesguitarist #folkmusic Photo: https://acousticbluespickers.com/mississippi-john-hurt-his-life-his-times-his-recordings/ - @nationalbluesmuseum on Instagram

I remember as a kid I saw Little Richard on TV. He was so amazing I did an impression of him at school the classroom just because. I was always the quiet kid but he gave me confidence to sing and dance for people. I will never get my first praise and I never forget that it was because of him that inspired me. Thank you Little Richard for all the music you created that influenced generations of music without them knowing. RIP 🙏🏾 - @mrjbrownmusic on Instagram

We’re gonna organize and dedicate ourselves to revolutionary political power and teach ourselves the specific needs of resisting the power structure, arm ourselves, and we’re gonna fight reactionary pigs with international proletarian revolution. That’s what it has to be. The people have to have the power: it belongs to the people. - Fred Hampton Born on this day 72 years ago. #fredhampton #birthday #bornday #history #capitalism #exploitation #alienation #labor #workingclass #proletariat #capitalists #capital #bourgeoisie #oppression #classstruggle #internationalproletarianrevolution #power #politicalpower #allpowertothepeople - @hamptonthink on Instagram

Today in Black History: Otis Redding, one of the greatest American soul singers/songwriters, was born on this day in 1941 in Dawson, Georgia. Redding was raised in Macon, where he started singing at a young age and was influenced by musicians such as Sam Cooke and Little Richard. His breakthrough into soul music came when Redding drove to Memphis, Tennessee with Johnny Jenkins and the Pinetoppers for a recording session at Stax Records in 1962. The Stax co-owner Jim Stewart allowed Otis to cut a few songs at the end of the recording session. The result was “These Arms of Mine”, which released that same year and launched his career. This was the first of many hit singles (including “I’ve Been Loving You Too Long,” “Respect,” and “Try a Little Tenderness) and his open-throated, emotional style and powerful singing became the measure of the decades great soul artists. In December of 1967, Redding and four members of his band were killed when their chartered plane crashed into a Wisconsin lake. He was only 26 years old. Shortly before his death, he recorded his number one hit single “(Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay” which shot to the top of the charts. He was posthumously inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1989 and was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Grammy awards in 1999. 📷: KALW Local Public Radio #todayinblackhistory #blackhistoryisamericanhistory #sallieellisdavishouse #otisredding - @sallieedavis on Instagram

Thomas Blind Tom Wiggins was a virtuosic pianist, gifted composer, and one of the most in-demand musicians of his time in America in the late 19th century. Born in 1849 into slavery in Columbus, Georgia, he was blind and autistic. His story is both tragic and remarkable. Learn more about his life and music from Associate Professor Clara Yang, Area Head for Keyboard Studies. (link in bio) And hear Prof. Yang perform an excerpt of Wiggins Voice of the Waves in our story! #uncMusic #BlindTom #piano #DWW #DoTheWork #antiracism @clarayangpiano @unc_piano - @uncmusic on Instagram

Happy 78th birthday to singer, songwriter, producer, and all around creative genius Swamp Dogg!! Yes he is known for some of the most outlandish(see great) album covers of all time(all of his own design), but the man born Jerry Williams Jr has been writing and singing about equality and what it’s like growing up Black in America his whole career on songs like “I Was Born Blue’’ and “God Bless America For What.’’ He has written songs for everyone from James Brown to Johnny Paycheck to ‘’a motherfucker named Mona Lisa.’ And his cover of John Prine’s “Sam Stone’’ will leave you curled up into a ball on the floor. Do yourself a favor and listen to some Swamp Dogg songs today. Also you have to look up some of his interviews, the man is brilliant, kind, and funny as hell. Happy birthday to the absolute legend Swamp Dogg!! 🎉🎂🎊❤️ - @johnnyknoxville on Instagram
