Traditional blues and American folk classics

Ken Wade, see https://westbeth.org/artist-page/ken-wade/

Bob Malenky is a dazzling eclectic performer, concentrating on the blues but at home with union songs, Woody Guthrie’s work, traditional folk and music hall songs. He plays exceptional guitar as learned from, among others, his blues idols Muddy Waters and Lightnin’ Hopkins.

He has recorded and toured with the legendary harmonica player Sonny Terry. He has worked with recording artist Charles Walker and recorded for Spivey Records with legendary singer and pianist Roosevelt Sykes. He plays at clubs, coffee houses, and festivals in this country as well as in Europe (mostly Britain). He has taught courses in world folk music at City College and is a regular host and performer on WBAI Folk Radio.

There is a chapter about him and his experiences in New York City Blues, edited by John Broven
