Black Music in Britain exhibit at The British Library

Описание к видео Black Music in Britain exhibit at The British Library

In May 2024, I visited the British Library and loved seeing the exhibit chronicling 500 years of black music in Britain. The Grant Green Story, a documentary I co-directed and co-produced, features my late former father in law, the jazz guitarist, at Ronnie Scott's famous club in London in 1969. I wish there had been more jazz represented in the show and a bigger space for visitors to move through the rich archive on display. Aside from that, wonderful job. And it’s outside the framing, but I would have also appreciated hearing a lot more about the cross-fertilization of music in the postwar period, especially all of that great music emerging between 1970s and late last century, Loose Ends, Brand New Heavies, Soul II Soul, Lisa Stansfield, Swing Out Sister, Incognito, etc. https://sharonygreenblog.wordpress.co...
