The story of Jackie Shane is the story of one of the greatest unsung soul singers of the 1960s. It is the story of an African-American transgender woman who had the courage, strength and soulfulness to lead her life in an open and honest manner at a time when doing so was extremely risky business. Jackie's sexuality was never a secret, but Jackie never played the transvestite or drag queen card. She wore makeup, silk shirts and jewelry onstage and off, projecting a sense of refined femininity, and did so in a manner exuding class, self-respect and dignity. Her identity was never an act designed to play with an audience's sense of exotica. Jackie was always, without apology, her authentic self. And she was always able to hold an audience in the palm of her hand, mesmerizing them with her radiant eyes, extraordinary vocal abilities, and graceful, subtle stage presence.

power chords were invented by indigenous (shawnee) musician link wray, who also made history when his song "rumble" became the first and only instrumental single banned from the radio in the us (way back in 1958!!!!!) "rumble" would go on to appear on shows like the sopranos and spongebob squarepants and films like pulp fiction

link wray popularized the modern "power chord" with distortion like the larsen effect in the late 1950s. this 1959 song "comanche" highlights his guitar techniques that played a role in the development of punk and metal.

playing that banned song in the 70s in san francisco:

after death, wray was featured in the 2017 documentary, RUMBLE: the indians who rocked the world. here is an article by one of his biographers if you would like to learn more:

The "Rumble" hitmaker, who grew up in Dunn, didn't embrace his Shawnee heritage until his forties.

This is  as distilled and as pure as blues can get. Skip James’ magical and spooky finger-picking style and his high falsetto voice made for something bizarre, a strangeness and a beauty and a completely unique sound. The story goes that Devil Got My Woman  was the inspiration for Robert Johnson’s Hellhound On My Trail which was recorded just a few years later. Skip James was from Bentonia, Mississippi, away from the Delta, where they did things differently with the guitar, less bottleneck slide and more finger picking.

Gang Gang Dance - Glass Jar: My “I want it to be summer” song of the moment.

All 11 minutes + of this song are worth it. The payoff comes at around 6:15, but the buildup makes it that much better. Listen to the whole song. Don’t cheat, it’s worth it.
