Gerard Burke To listen to Gerard Burke is to hear blues played the way it was played in the rural South before the electric guitar. Using a slide, resonator and standard acoustic guitars, Burke transports his listeners back to the pre-war days in the Mississippi Delta region, where the blues was a way of life, a form of expression for the bluesman and a source of entertainment for his listeners |
