Broke & Hungry Records

St. Louisan Jeff Konkel has started a new record label, Broke & Hungry Records, dedicated to the Delta Blues.



Broke & Hungry Records is headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, a city well known for its contribution to blues music. Yet the label’s initial focus is on capturing the rough, country blues sounds that have emanated from the Mississippi Delta for nearly a hundred years. These were the blues that first captured the attention of the label’s founder when he began immersing himself in the music during hislate teens.

The label’s inaugural release is Back to Bentonia by Jimmy “Duck” Holmes. It represents the debut CD for the 58-year-old Holmes. It is currently available in stores and through the label’s Web site at www.brokeandhungryrecords.com/.



Back to Bentonia is just the first of many releases planned by the label. It will be followed in short order by a stunning country blues release featuring Wesley Jefferson and Terry “Big T” Williams, two Clarksdale, Mississippi natives who are better known for their thundering, electrified work. Blues fans who are only familiar with that side of these two veteran artists are likely to be stunned by their upcoming release.

Mr. Reuter performs a couple of songs at the opening of "St. Louis - Seen and Unseen", a coffee table book which features several of Bob's photos. The book is really well-done, and not only a testament of the inherent beauty of our city, but also the wealth of photographers/artists.
