ESPECIAL RUTH BROWN

from Blues Syndicate

ESPECIAL RUTH BROWN Ruth Brown nació en Portsmouth (Virginia) y empezó a cantar muy niña, formándose en el coro de la iglesia que dirigía su padre. Un premio en el Apollo de Nueva York la llevó al circuito de clubs. Sus actuaciones en el Crystal Caverns de Washington DC llamaron la atención de, entre otros, Duke Ellington, que recomendó su fichaje al sello Atlantic, una compañía que acabó siendo popularmente conocida como la casa que Ruth construyó. Fueron grabaciones para el sello como 5-10-15 hours las que sacaron el rhythm & blues del gueto. Y aunque el racismo hizo que muchas de esas canciones fueran reconvertidas en melodías pop interpretadas por otros artistas, Brown lanzó el género hacia el éxito._Los años 60 fueron duros para una mujer que, aunque se casó cuatro veces, casi siempre crió sola a sus dos hijos. Trabajó de asistenta y conductora de autobús hasta que llegó su renacimiento en los 70. Triunfó en Broadway y en sus incursiones en el jazz. Y encontró un lugar en el cine (hizo un papel relevante en Hairspray y colaboró con John Sayles en un documental aún inédito sobre músicos afroamericanos)._Quizá uno de sus mayores legados es la Fundación Rhythm & Blues, el grupo desde el que Brown lideró la lucha para que Atlantic y otros sellos reconocieran y pagaran los derechos de decenas artistas.
