Friends of the Sixties: The Landmark Ann Arbor Blues Festivals 1969-1970

Tue, 01/31/2023 - 7:50am

This is a rough-draft of some footage Stephen Erlewine took back in 1970 at the second pivotal Arbor Blues Festival, where his brother Michael was in charge of food and drink for the blues artists, and also served as interviewer for scores of the performers. This was a life-changing experience and led some years later to Michael founding the All-Music Guide (AMG).
