British blues fan Mike Leadbitter launched the magazine Blues Unlimited in 1963. The groundbreaking publication fueled the then-nascent, now-legendary blues revival that reclaimed seminal figures ...like Son House and Skip James from obscurity. Throughout its history, Blues Unlimited heightened the literacy of blues fans, documented the latest news and career histories of countless musicians, and set the standard for revealing long-form interviews. Conducted by Bill Greensmith, Leadbitter, Mike Rowe, John Broven, and others, and covering a who's who of blues masters, these essential interviews from twenty-five years of Blues Unlimited shed light on their subjects while gleaning colorful detail from the rough and tumble of blues history. Here is Freddie King playing a string of one-nighters so grueling it destroys his car; five-year-old Fontella Bass gigging at St. Louis funeral homes; and Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup rising from life in a packing crate to music stardom. Here, above all, is an eyewitness history of the blues written in neon lights and tears, an American epic of struggle and transcendence, of Saturday night triumphs and Sunday morning anonymity, of clean picking and dirty deals. Featuring interviews with: Fontella Bass, Ralph Bass, Fred Below, Juke Boy Bonner, Roy Brown, Albert Collins, James Cotton, Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup, Joe Dean, Henry Glover, L.C. Green, Dr. Hepcat, Red Holloway, Louise Johnson, Floyd Jones, Moody Jones, Freddie King, Big Maceo Merriweather, Walter Mitchell, Louis Myers, Johnny Otis, Snooky Pryor, Sparks Brothers, Jimmy Thomas, Jimmy Walker, and Baby Boy Warren.
The Mississippi Delta blues run as deep and mysterious as the beautiful land from where the music originates. Blues legends B.B. King, Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Howlin' Wolf, Sonny Boy ...Williamson, and countless other greats came from this region. The Delta blues, born as work songs in Mississippi cotton fields, was played on city street corners and in rural juke joints. With the Great Migration of African Americans in the first half of the 20th century, the Delta blues also made its way from Mississippi to Chicago. The sound of the blues would become the blueprint for the birth of rock and roll in Memphis in the 1950s. The era of the great Delta blues musicians is over, but their legacy remains an important chapter in American music. This book contains images of these important performers and the rich Delta landscapes that influenced their music.

As one of the first African American vocalists to be recorded, Bessie Smith is a prominent figure in American popular culture and African American history. Michelle R. Scott uses Smith's life as a ...lens to investigate broad issues in history, including industrialization, Southern rural to urban migration, black community development in the post-emancipation era, and black working-class gender conventions. _x000B__x000B_Arguing that the rise of blues culture and the success of female blues artists like Bessie Smith are connected to the rapid migration and industrialization in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Scott focuses her analysis on Chattanooga, Tennessee, the large industrial and transportation center where Smith was born. This study explores how the expansion of the Southern railroads and the development of iron foundries, steel mills, and sawmills created vast employment opportunities in the postbellum era. Chronicling the growth and development of the African American Chattanooga community, Scott examines the Smith family's migration to Chattanooga and the popular music of black Chattanooga during the first decade of the twentieth century, and culminates by delving into Smith's early years on the vaudeville circuit.
Despite the influence of African American music and study as a worldwide phenomenon, no comprehensive and fully annotated reference tool currently exists that covers the wide range of genres. This ...much needed bibliography fills an important gap in this research area and will prove an indispensable resource for librarians and scholars studying African American music and culture.

META-R (multi-environment trial analysis in R) is a suite of R scripts linked by a graphical user interface (GUI) designed in Java language. The objective of META-R is to accurately analyze ...multi-environment plant breeding trials (METs) by fitting mixed and fixed linear models from experimental designs such as the randomized complete block design (RCBD) and the alpha-lattice/lattice designs. META-R simultaneously estimates the best linear and unbiased estimators (BLUEs) and the best linear and unbiased predictors (BLUPs). Additionally, it computes the variance-covariance parameters, as well as some statistical and genetic parameters such as the least significant difference (LSD) at 5% significance, the coefficient of variation in percentage (CV), the genetic variance, and the broad-sense heritability. These parameters are very important in the selection of top performing genotypes in plant breeding. META-R also computes the phenotypic and genetic correlations among environments and between traits, as well as their statistical significance. The genetic correlations between environments or traits can be visualized in a biplot graph or a tree diagram (dendrogram). Genetic correlations are very important for identifying environments with similar behavior or making indirect selection and identifying the most highly associated traits. META-R performs multi-environment analyses by using the residual maximum likelihood (REML) method; these analyses can be done by environment, across environments by grouping factors (stress conditions, nitrogen content, etc.) and across environments; the analyses across environments can be done with a pre-defined degree of heritability.

Pada penelitian ini didapatkan 53,3% dari seluruh ibu postpartum di RS PKU Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta mengalami postpartum blues. Rekomendasi dari penelitian ini adalah adanya skrining postpartum blues oleh tenaga kesehatan sebelum ibu nifas di perbolehkan pulang dan ada kunjungan nifas bagi ibu ibu yang terdeteksi postpartum blues saat di rumah sakit. Postpartum blues is categorized as a mild mental disorder syndrome that is often experienced by postpartum women so that it is often ignored, undiagnosed and untreated, if the postpartum blues is not healed for 2 weeks it will turn into postpartum depression and postpartum psycosis. This study aims to determine the description of the incidence of postpartum blues in postpartum mothers. The research design used is quantitative descriptive with cross sectional time approach.

Robert Johnson's "Terraplane Blues" was a modest hit for the newly recorded bluesman. Notable musically for its elaborate intertwining rhythms and disjointed sections, interpretations of the song ...have revolved around its lyrical double entendres, which equate a woman to a car to discuss her infidelity and the narrator's resultant inability to arouse or satisfy his partner sexually. Although the car in the title has been identified as a Hudson model, scant attention has been paid to the sociocultural significance of cars in the Mississippi Delta in the late 1930s.
