9/14 - Athenaeum at 1pm - Stones in My Passway: The Road from Blues to Rock


Please join us on Wednesday, September 14, at 1pm for "Stones in My Passway: The Road from Blues to Rock" presented by Paul Vance.

Paul Vance will examine the ways in which the American blues developed into "rock" music in the 1960s. With the music of Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, and Howlin' Wolf as a point of origin, this discussion will describe the ways in which groups such as Cream, the Yardbirds, and the Rolling Stones took these American models and created a new musical genre.

The Library Athenaeum is located on the second floor, bluff side of the Darrell W. Krueger Library. For the complete Fall 2011 Library Athenaeum schedule, please visit the following: http://www.winona.edu/library/athenaeum/
