Sean's
Review
In November 1998, the
coffee-table book "The Rolling Stones A Life On The
Road" was published.
The book aroused my
interest in Alexis Korner.
"Who's Alexis
Korner?" "Which kinds of music did he play?"
First of all, I bought
an album through the internet.There was no reason I chose it. It was on the top of a list at an online shop.
The album was titled "TESTAMENT", which was a live album.
I was completely blown away. What a fantastic music!
I felt like I found
just what I was looking for.
Then, I started to
buy more his albums (CDs, Vinyls).
In those days there
were few websites about Alexis Korner.
His biography was the
only way for me to find out about him.
I think he is one of
the under-rated musicians in music history, even though he was rated "The
Father of British Blues".
Most people seemed to
know him as a radio presenter rather than a musician.
I really want a lot of
people to listen to his music, especially the younger generations who have
never seen him before like me.
That's the reason why I
made up my mind to build this website.
I'm so glad that this
website could give you a chance to start to know about Alexis Korner.
