#746 - Marcia Ball

#746 - Marcia Ball The Marcia Ball Interview is featured on The Paul Leslie Hour. So, we have a short interview from the archives and it’s just for you. Marcia Ball is a renowned blues singer and pianist. Paul E. Leslie has had the grand pleasure to see her a couple of times in concert, and her records are worth seeking out.  Marcia Ball was born in Orange, Texas. So she’s Texas born, but really she was raised and I guess you could she’s from Vinton, Louisiana. She has a lot of the Gulf Coast and Louisiana influence in her work. Whether she’s performing her own songs or someone else wrote, it’s distinctly Marcia Ball. People who love real music love her material and have for years. So, this interview with Marcia Ball was taped out doors. It was recorded at this funky coffee shop in the very funky Little Five Points neighborhood of Atlanta. She was playing at the Variety Playhouse, naturally. They had just a few minutes to talk before Marcia Ball would be taking the stage. Now, maybe you have just a minute to help support the show.
