BONUS TRACK

Black Chicago poet Fenton Johnson was using Blues Language as early as his 1913 poetry collection\xa0"A Little Dreaming." That could make this poem an early example of a literary page poet using Blues Language.\xa0

Just for fun I decided to create one of our rare Parlando Bonus Tracks. This version has been made to sound like an old, somewhat worn 78 RPM record as a tribute to the early Blues musicians.\xa0

The Parlando Project takes various words, mostly literary poetry, and combines them with original music we compose and perform in different styles. Ther are over 700 other examples at our blog an archives located at frankhudson.org
