Along with many other young perople who grew up in the southern United States in the early 60\u2019s, she listened to powerful Nashville, Tennessee WLAC radio deejay \u201cJohn R\u2019s\u201d popular blues radio show after midnight every night.<\/p>\n<p>As a high school social science teacher in Florida during thirty years, Monte was the recipient of a scholarship in 1995 from the Florida Humanities Council to study blues music at the University of Tampa where she met the late Tampa Bay harmonica, Rock Bottom, and the late \u201cDiamond Teeth\u201d Mary McClain. Amazed that \u201cDiamond Teeth\u201d Mary had been written up in European blues magazines but not in American, she vowed to change that.<\/p>\n<p>Taking a summer pilgrimage to the Delta to study at the University of Mississippi in Oxford, she spent time researching Mary in the Blues Archives and met David Nelson, then editor of Living Blues which is based there on the Ole Miss campus. She asked David if he knew Mary and he said he had seen her perform at the W.C. Handy Awards in Memphis in \u201992. When asked if indeed his magazine was true \u201cLiving Blues\u201d, if she wrote about Mary performing on her 95th birthday, would he publish it? The answer was yes and Living Blues did and then went on to write an article on Monte\u2019s Blues in the Schools program in a \u201997 issue.<\/p>\n<p>Monte began writing a regular column for the Suncoast Blues Society newsletter, the Twelve Bar Rag under the moniker \u201cThe Blues Stalker.\u201d She is still writing about talented blues artists who are under appreciated and often ignored by the mainstream press. She also covers other aspects of the blues music industry besides the musicians themselves. Her photographs can be viewed on the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.suncoastblues.org\/\">Suncoast Blues Society website\u00a0<\/a>as well as photographs of the popular annual Tampa Bay Blues Festival.<br \/>\nMonte\u2019s commitment to keeping the blues alive is evident in her articles and photos, and was present in her classroom in Ocala, Florida where every inch of her walls were covered with snapshots and autographed posters of blues musicians that she has met. As she puts it, \u201cIt\u2019s my way of sneaking the heritage in -when you\u2019re bored with the lessons and look up on the walls and see Kenny Neal, Eddie Kirkland, or Sista Monica- you might just give a listen later in live and fall in love with the music just like I have. It is another small way of keeping the blues alive\u201d. You can visit her\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bluesstalker.com\/\">personal website<\/a>\u00a0site too.<\/p>\n<p>I am really satisfied and proud to have at \u201cLa Hora del Blues\u201d staff, directly from USA, the valuable support, help and collaboration of this great blues expert and lover, known as \u201cThe Blues Stalker\u201d. I am sure you will enjoy this page with all her interesting and juicy interviews and photographs, so I can only encourage you to visit it regularly.<\/p>\n<p>Welcome aboard!

I first heard Roger play guitar at a local pub that a friend owned who held live music shows on Sunday afternoons for musicians traveling back from gigs in South Florida. In fact, Roger is responsible for my pen name, \u201cthe Blues Stalker.\u201d\u00a0 I had seen Roger play in Florida one of those Sunday afternoons. The nest day I was on my way to Oxford, Mississippi, to engage in a Florida Humanities Council scholarship to study the history of blues music at \u2018Ole Miss. I spent the night with my sister in Atlanta and we went to a coffee house in Marietta and Roger was playing there. The next evening, I was in Oxford and he was playing at a venue on the square there and I showed up to hear him.\u00a0 So, in 3 days in 3 different states, we collided. On the third day, he asked me jokingly (?) \u201cAre you stalking me?\u201d\u00a0 Months later, when I had begun writing for the Suncoast Blues Society\u2019s newsletter Twelve Bar Rag (1997) I told a colleague that I needed a pen name to write under. I had also told him the story of seeing Roger and him accusing me of \u201cstalking\u201d me. So my friend suggested, \u201chow about the Blues Stalker?\u201d\u00a0 That is how the moniker was claimed and over the years Roger and I have become blues buddies colliding on the blues highway frequently.<br \/>\n<\/em><em>Roger has over 40 years experience in broadcasting, television and radio, in addition to being an accomplished songwriter, guitar instructor and musician. Inspired by an Allman Brothers performance in Atlanta\u2019s Piedmont Park, he started playing guitar professionally in 1972. He taught guitar lessons at his own studio from 1973-1985. In 1986 he worked for CNN for a decade and then went on the road in 1996. In 1997 he started his own record label BlueStorm Records. (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.BluestormRecords.com\">www.BluestormRecords.com<\/a>) With over 25 CDs to his credit and many years of touring playing festivals and clubs, Roger still teaches guitar lessons on the internet, teaches Blues in the Schools sessions, judges the International Blues Challenge, continues to write music and record, and tours in his recreational vehicle.\u00a0 Roger has developed quite a following of fans at RV resorts and campgrounds when he takes his music skills on the road to share with others. With over a half century of experience in the music and entertainment industry, his journey was finally penned in his autobiography \u201cHurricane\u201d published in 2016.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Blues Stalker: Roger, in your opinion, what are the best and the worst trends that you have observed in your fifty years in the music business?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Roger Wilson: I really appreciate the technology available now for recording, promoting, and distributing music ourselves that gives us total control over our bodies of work. After all of the time I was on the road, working on my own music at home and doing everything from there is very enjoyable and much more productive.<br \/>\nAfter doing two hundred or so dates a year on the road for a long time, it seems I am reaching more people worldwide than ever before. A big negative is how inconsiderate, rude, and clueless so many audiences are these days. With as much that is out there today, it seems that no one is listening most of the time. Music is\u00a0supposed to be listened to and not talked over. There is nothing wrong with dancing and having a good time, but for the singer\/songwriter\/performer to actually engage and be listened to as opposed to just being heard, the artist has to be selective and choose his or her own audience.<\/p>\n<p><em>B.S.: You have been a judge at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis. What advice would you give artists competing for the first time?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>R.W.: Just present your material as you would at a regular gig. What I mean by that is do what you do. Don&#8217;t try to be something you aren&#8217;t, or try to throw an act together just for the IBC. As judges, we can see right through that. An example would be having seen numerous musicians come in as a duo, with one playing guitar accompanied by a saxophone player. It most always never works. Muddy Waters once said if you will just be yourself, they will love you.<\/p>\n<p><em><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-43660\" src=\"https:\/\/lahoradelblues.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/RogerHurricaneWilsonMonte1-1-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Foto Interview Roger &quot;Hurricane&quot; Wilson por Monte Adkison &quot;The Blues Stalker&quot;.

What other gear are you partial to?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>R.W.: My onstage gear is quite simple. For my electric sets, I played Les Pauls for many years, but settled on Fender Strats since the sound was more versatile in my trio situation, which has been the norm for me since the late 50&#8217;s. LOL. A minimal effects board consisting of two Boss Delays, one set long and one short, a Boss Chorus pedal, an Ibanez Tube Screamer, and a Dunlop Cry Baby Wah Wah pedal are more than enough for what I need. As far as amps, I&#8217;ve endorsed Peavey amps since the mid 90&#8217;s, but a Fender Deluxe has proved time and time again that it can take a licking and keep on ticking. For my acoustic sets, Taylor Guitars have been very good to me with an endorsement deal since 2003. I have a 700, a GS, and a T5, and I do utilize a TC Helicon harmonizer and a Boss RC 2 looper to keep things interesting and fun.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><br \/>\nBS:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 You participate in Blues in the Schools programs and have recorded several CDs with high school jazz bands. Can you tell us about that experience?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>R.W.: I simply started out going into classrooms simply trying to let kids know there was life before rap and to pull their pants up. Once they heard the music and some of the stories, they were hooked. It is a shame that the arts have suffered in U.S. education for such a long time. Hats off to organizations, teachers and administrators that think out of the box by getting it and trying to rally against the ignorance of the constant testers and bean counters.<\/p>\n<p><em><br \/>\nB.S.: You often perform at the Rentiesville Dusk \u2018Til Dawn Blues Festival and were inducted into the Oklahoma Blues Hall of Fame in 2015. For those unfamiliar with that festival, tell us about it.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>R.W.: The festival was founded in 1990 by legendary Oklahoma Bluesman, D.C. Minner, along with his wife, Selby. My first appearance there was in 2003, and I have been back every year since simply because it is the real deal. I was able to get involved with nearby Checotah High School to work with the band director. That led to a number of years performing with the high school band at the blues festival. The Oklahoma Blues Hall of Fame had been created there early on, and since they had created a division for folks that worked in the state, but weren&#8217;t native to it, there were a number of us that were formally inducted. It was a real honor. The festival was virtual in 2020, but will be back in person over Labor Day Weekend 2021.

Tell us about the venue and why you chose to recently release it.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>R.W.: My plan was to release it much earlier, but I got sidetracked with other projects along the way, as well as touring. While recording my sets every night on the road, this one really stood out. The band, Harry Werner on bass, and Scott Stump on drums, who I referred to as The Pennsylvania Railroad, along with the crowd, really locked in that night. The Time Out Pub in Rockland, Maine hosted road acts every Monday night for many years. It was presented by Paul Benjamin, founder of the North Atlantic Blues Festival, who gave many acts a gig on a Monday night as opposed to having to suffer through another empty weeknight on the road with their tongues hanging out. The Time Out Pub closed as a result of Covid 19, as many venues did, so it was obvious that it was the right time to preserve something else that was now gone.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-43664\" src=\"https:\/\/lahoradelblues.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/RogerHurricaneWilsonMonte2-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Entrevista a Roger &quot;Hurricane&quot; Wilson por Monte Adkison &quot;The Blues Stalker&quot;.

You utilize AirPlay Direct to get your music played all over the world. Can you share your thoughts on how artists can best get their music to the people most effectively at this time, particularly during pandemic and post-pandemic times with so many venues closed down<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>R.W.: For me, I just keep writing, recording, releasing music, and putting it out. If folks like it, that&#8217;s even better.<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve always played music for me because it was fun, not really caring if anyone was listening or not. That was my approach as a little kid, since I didn&#8217;t know any better. As I aged and saw how music transcends geographical, ethnic, and racial barriers, how could I not want to keep on doing it! To answer the question, this goes back to my statement about so many (not all) people not listening in live situations. For musicians, the stage is where you keep your chops up. For others, it&#8217;s that fix of the applause that they can&#8217;t live without. I suppose I was guilty of that for a time, but somewhere along the way, that addiction left&#8230; thankfully! With the internet and digital distribution by way of many devices, and music being so portable that it can be taken anywhere, I think most people are more apt to actually listen. As far as vinyl, I still have a wall of shelves full, but you have to be sitting in one place, probably at home to experience it. Nothing wrong with that whatsoever, but in my case, if I play a vinyl record,\u00a0I&#8217;m usually transferring it to digital from a USB turntable. Just as well, the digital formats don&#8217;t melt in your vehicle when the temperature exceeds one hundred degrees. I&#8217;m speaking from experience.<\/p>\n<p><em><br \/>\nB.S.: You travel self-contained in your own recreational vehicle\/camper. I know that you have a following of fans at many campgrounds that you use and did I see where you are having an \u2018RV tour in the fall where fans can follow you? What a clever idea. Tell us more.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>R.W.: That was an opportunity that surfaced as a result of my wonderful wife, Jolie, understanding how much I was touring, to purchase a motorhome back in 1998 for me to travel and carry a band in. As the band opportunities became more difficult to maintain travel-wise, I elected to utilize different rhythm sections in different parts of the country and abroad. In searching for the best option for travel, downsizing to a van and a pull behind trailer was a suitable alternative. As my solo situation proved to be more economical and less stressful, RV resorts were a pleasant change from the usual run of the mill roadhouse to an audience that would never see or hear me otherwise. And I could hang out and enjoy the facilities and scenery for a few days as well.<\/p>\n<p><em><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-43666 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/lahoradelblues.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/RogerHurricaneWilsonMonte3.jpg\" alt=\"Entrevista a Roger&quot;Hurricane&quot; Wilson por Monte Adkison &quot;The Blues Stalker&quot;.
