Charlie Parr
On Centerstage Minnesota
-
Charlie Parr is a singular
musician. Given his refreshingly
humble nature, you'll never hear
that from
Charlie Parr himself. But
it is simply true. A self-taught
player, student of the most earnest
folk and blues players and
traditions, and seemingly larger
than life while seated on a folding
chair during live performances,
Charlie Parr has a chapter reserved
for him in Minnesota's musical
history. While that chapter is far
from complete, such a claim can be
made because of the unmistakable
substance that makes up the man and
his music. Check out this conversation
Charlie Parr had with Charlie
Pulkrabek, and the songs he recorded
in the studios of Northern Community
Radio. |
