Arthur Rovozzo
This film project is the brainchild of “Musical Myriad” host Arthur Rovozzo, WECS Radio, 90.1FM.
Arthur’s extensive musical knowledge and passion for historical roots has led to the development of this unique 5-part series.
As Arthur describes:
“On March 22nd at The Packing House we're planning to have a different kind of music movie night - one with virtually no hit songs. Eric Clapton Jamming The Blues will be pretty much true to the title and theme. Expect a lot of powerhouse music and guitar solos but do not expect the typical hits from the 1970’s through the 1990’s. Instead of MTV style commercialism we’ll have clips of Eric Clapton, working with Bruce and Baker in the band Cream; playing cameo appearances with blues guitarist comrades and legends and having a blues summit with guest musicians at a prestigious concert venue. These film excerpts verify that Clapton has kept returning to his core obsession with the blues to re-energize his career over the years."
We have compiled and will screen a selection of unique and relevant historic music related films from February thru May. This series is intended to share the journey and evolution of contemporary rock and blues from the sixties forward.
Join us for the screening of Part-3 of this musical journey. This project is a part of the EC-CHAP Film Series hosted by the Eastern Connecticut Center for History, Art, and Performance (EC-CHAP), a 501.3.c non-profit membership-based cultural organization.
