When You Get the Blues
Live Music Photography from Chicago,
Detroit and Toronto
Photographed by
Timothy A.Campbell
I was very lucky to grow up in Toronto when so many of the great blues
musicians came and played the small clubs downtown. Years later, on
reflection, I realized that these shows were a historical moment, and I
am grateful that I had the opportunity to have photographed most of
these shows.
A large number of the blues musicians have since passed away, some old
and some young. Thankfully the music lives on, and these images of
places and performers, on and offstage, share the feelings and
emotions I experienced then, 15 to 20 years ago, and continue to feel
when I listen to their timeless music.
This exhibition documents people, venues, clubs and soulful music. I met
and talked with most of the musicians I photographed. Some were
legends, some were stars, and some were members of their bands. They
told stories and shared their thoughts, and sometimes would talk
about home, and what it meant to them. They wrote and played great
songs, and photographing these moments was a way for me to be a fan as
well as a photographer.
Albert’s Hall in Toronto was an important venue for many blues
performers, as was Theresa’s Lounge in Chicago and the Soup Kitchen
Saloon in Detroit. All of these venues are gone.
I have always been very sensitive to the feelings of others, and the
music of these blues artists was like a tidal wave of expressive emotion,
full of stories of love, heartache, loss and the suffering of the human
spirit. Stevie Ray Vaughn, John Lee Hooker, Junior Wells, Paul
Butterfield, Son seals, Albert King, Willie Dixon, and Albert Collins
have all passed on, which makes these photographs a treasure to view.
Willie Dixon said, “The blues is the true facts of life expressed
in words, songs, inspirations, feelings, understanding, wisdom
and knowledge. Without any one of these, you can’t have The
Blues.”
