The best biography of Big Joe Duskin was the article Larry Nager wrote for
Living Blues when Joe made the cover. Larry was instrumental in arranging Big Joe's final CD and getting Peter Frampton,
Philip Paul and Ed Conley to perform on it with him. This is the CD that was nominated for a Blues Award for Comeback
CD of the Year. Unfortunately, Gary U.S. Bonds won, but Joe had a great time at the awards and performed on stage.
Original copies of the Living Blues issue on Big Joe can be ordered here or each page of the article is downloadable here:
Larry Nager is author of "Memphis Beat", has been music critic for Memphis' "Commercial Appeal" and Cincinnati's "Enquirer" newspapers and is currently living
in Nashville.
