1 A Smithsonian Exhibition March 12 7:30 p.m. Celebrating the Traditions of Gospel, Blues and Folk Jerry Boogie McCain and Microwave Dave Peanutt Montgomery and Sue Richards Bare Knuckles GMBC Sanctuary Singers Ritz Theater, 111 West 3 rd Street, Sheffield, Alabama Tickets: $10.00 in Advance, $15.00 at the Door Jerry Boogie McCain and Microwave Dave Singer and harmonica player Jerry McCain s best-known song, She s Tuff was made into a breakthrough hit by the Fabulous Thunderbirds in the mid-80s. McCain s own recording career started in 1952 with the Trumpet label. He also recorded for Excello and Okeh and a handful of smaller companies with little success in the late 50s. Determined not to quit playing the blues, however, McCain stuck with his music, playing small clubs in Alabama, occasionally touring with better-known artists like Freddie King and Rufus Thomas, and recording for Ric, Continental, Jewel and other small labels, when not working as a private investigator. In the early 60s, McCain signed with CBS Records; his version of Gene Ammons Red Top was a regional hit, but he failed to record a suitable follow-up number and was dropped from the label. Thanks to the success enjoyed by the Fabulous Thunderbirds with She s Tuff, interest in McCain s music finally picked up again in the late 1980s. In 1989 he signed a recording contract with Ichiban Records. His debut album for the label, Blues n Stuff, gave his career new life and shone new light on his harp talents. McCain continues to record and perform. From the Tennessee Valley comes Microwave Dave and the Nukes with blues as old as poverty, as new as digital technology. Formed in Huntsville, Alabama during the late 80s, this trio has won over audiences from blues festivals and concerts to bars and street parties with their consistently emotional performances of blues songs. Utilizing both
2 classic, instantly recognizable pieces and obscure off-the-wall surprises, the NUKES sell their entire repertoire to every crowd by employing a combination of vocal intensity, instrumental finesse and flagrance, and the desire to groove and heal that is the very foundation of the blues. Currently, Microwave Dave can be found producing and hosting his Talkin the Blues weekly program over NPR, college and public radio stations in Alabama, promoting blues awareness and appreciation through recordings, interviews and how-to segments, along with lists of local appearances by blues artists. Peanutt Montgomery and Sue Richards Earl, better known as Peanutt is the youngest of the talented Montgomery family. His oldest brother Aaron played with Hank Williams, brother Monty was a vocalist releasing recordings on three different labels, Carl wrote the classic Six Days on the Road and sister Melba recorded with Roy Acuff, George Jones, Charlie Louvin and Gene Pitney in addition to having a solo career. Peanutt was one of the first studio guitarists in the Muscle Shoals area and went on to tour with Bobby Denton, George Jones and Tammy Wynette, Red Foley, Cowboy Copas, Patsy Cline and others. He is best known for his songwriting, having written or co-written 38 of George Jones singles, and the country classics One Of These Days, What s Your Mama s Name Child and We re Gonna Hold On. A native of the Shoals area, Sue Richards began singing Gospel music with her family at the age of 4, then released her first record on the Sun label at the age of 11, recording under her maiden name Maggie Sue Wimberly. The record How Long was backed with Daydreams Come True and was produced by Sam Phillips. She was the third female act on Phillips label and although the songs were rockabilly in style remain closest to pure country among Phillips acts. She recorded Too Many Daddys for Epic Records in 1969, and released I Just Had You On My Mind on ABC-Dot in Her biggest hit Sweet Sensuous Feelings on ABC-Dot hit the charts in The song was written by Ava and Roy Aldridge. Richards toured as a background vocalist with Tammy Wynette from 1977 until Wynette s death in As a songwriter, Richards wrote Let s All Go Down to the River, written with Earl Peanutt Montgomery. I Just Had You On My Mind, Somebody Hold Me (Until She Passes By), written with Ava and Roy Aldridge, Ease Me To The Ground, Please Tell Him That I Said Hello, He Was There When I Needed You and Imaginary Arms. Bare Knuckles When you mix a poet and a photographer and practicing blues musician together in The Muscle Shoals you get Bare Knuckles. Wayne Sides is the photographer part of the mixture. In addition to his duties as a member of the faculty of the University of North Alabama, Wayne Sides has collaborated with musicians and writers to produce books, exhibits and movies.
3 One of those collaborations is with poet, Jake Berry. Jake Berry, whose work is widely published, has been quoted as saying, that the combination of blues and country provide, the ground we live on, the environment we live in that this music was born in.

March 29 2:00 p.m. Gallery Talk by Joyce Cauthen - Fiddlers, Banjo Players and Strawbeaters Alabama s First Pop Musicians Admission: FREE includes exhibition Fiddles are mentioned in the first written history of Alabama. Its author, A. J. Pickett, wrote of the Alabama Territory as it was in the late 1700s, saying that the house of Samuel Mims, a wealthy Indian countryman, was the most spacious in the country, and hither the young and gay flocked to parties and danced to the music furnished by the Creoles of Mobile and others, for the country abounded in fiddlers, of high and low degree. This presentation will discuss the early fiddlers of Alabama, the musicians who played with them and the popularity of this music in their communities. Discussions will also surround the pivotal role played by African-Americans in developing the music at the roots of today s bluegrass and country music. This talk will be made especially interesting by the presence of fiddler Jim Cauthen who will demonstrate fiddle tunes that have been specifically mentioned in historical writings, slave narratives and early newspapers of Alabama. Joyce Cauthen will demonstrate use
6 of banjo, straws (a technique in which broom straws or knitting needles were beat on the strings as the fiddler played) and guitar in backing up the fiddle. The audience will hear musical styles and tunes that are seldom heard today and will have the opportunity to ask questions and share their perceptions of the differences in this music and the modern country music that is based upon it. April 5 2:00 p.m. Gallery Talk by David Ivy and Demonstrations by the North Alabama Shape Note Singers Admission: FREE includes exhibition David Ivey has played an important role in sustaining the tradition of Sacred Harp singing in north Alabama. A singer since his childhood in Henagar, he attended singing schools under such notable singing masters as Hugh McGraw and Leonard Lacy. Through the Alabama Folk Arts Apprenticeship Program, he has taught singing schools in numerous Alabama communities for several years. Mr. Ivey often takes part in all-day singings around the state, regularly pitching or keying music as a front bench tenor. He has held leadership positions with local and state singing conventions, the Sacred Harp Publishing Company and the Sacred Harp Musical Heritage Association. He also cofounded and directs Camp Fasola, an innovative program in which children and adults learn Sacred Harp singing in a summer camp setting. April 19 2:00 p.m. Gallery Talk by Dr. Alan Brown - Sounds of Alabama: Blues, Folk, and Country Western Icons from the Heart of Dixie Admission: FREE includes exhibition Alabama has produced a number of singers who have achieved national and international fame. Inexplicably, Alabama s contributions to American music have been overshadowed by the works of legendary musicians from Mississippi (e.g., Elvis Presley and Robert Johnson). The fact remains that Alabama has produced a number of musicians whose songs have encapsulated the Alabama experience in blues and country western music. Sounds of Alabama showcases the lives and works of six of
7 Alabama s best-known singers and songwriters: blues artists W.C. Handy ( ) and Willie Mae Big Mama Thornton ( ), folk music s Vera Hall ( ) and Odetta (b. 1930), country music artist s Hank Williams ( ) and the country western band Alabama. The primary goal of this presentation is to show how the most recent singers benefited and built upon the works of the pioneering singers in each genre.
