THE RAW HARMONICA BLUES OF

CHARLIE SAYLES

"GOIN' DOWN"

VOLUME ONE

DUSTY ROAD RECORDS-LP 701

1976

CHARLIE SAYLES WAS BORN IN BOSTON, SERVED IN VIETNAM.  TRAVELED ALL OVER THE U.S. DOING HIS ONE MAN BLUES ACT ON THE STREETS, MAINLY IN N.Y.C. MIDTOWN GREENWICH VILLAGE AREA.

  HE SINGS AND PLAYS THE BLUES WITH STUNNING INTENSITY THROUGH A PORTABLE AMPLIFIER TURNED TO FULL VOLUME.  HE ACCOMPANIES HIMSELF WITH A HIGH-HAT (CYMBAL) LAID FLAT ON THE SIDEWALK WHICH HE TAPS WITH HIS FOOT TO KEEP UP AN EFFECTIVE RHYTHM.  WHAT COMPLETES THE EFFECT IS THAT HE SINGS THROUGH HIS HARMONICA INTO THE MICROPHONE IN THE SAME WAY AS SEVERAL BLUESMEN WERE DOING IN THE EARLY 50'S WHEN THE AMPLIFIED HARMONICA WAS FIRST INTRODUCED.

MANY OF THE BEST TRADITIONS OF THE BLUES ARE MAINTAINED IN HIS MUSIC, HE HAS A COMPLETELY INDIVIDUAL STYLE OF HIS OWN.  SONNY BOY WILLIAMSON MAY BE HIS IDOL BUT HIS HARP TECHNIQUE OWES NOTHING TO HIM OR ANY OTHER ARTIST AND HIS SONGS ARE EQUALLY INDIVIDUAL.
