Chanteur Bluegrass US né William August Marburg, le 5
Avril 1931 à Riverwood
(Maryland).
If you attend a bluegrass
festival, thank Bill Clifton for having the idea to present the very first one.
Clifton was not the most famous of the first generation of bluegrass artists,
but he did much to establish the idea of bluegrass as a preserver of half-forgotten
songs and styles. Clifton's background was hardly a typical one for bluegrass --
although the players who would populate the distinctive Washington, D.C.,
bluegrass scene often shared Clifton's professional background. He was born
William Marburg to a wealthy family in Riverwood, MD, in suburban Baltimore
County. As a child, he became fascinated by country music he heard on the radio.
A folk-music enthusiast, he made the obligatory trip to New York to visit
Woody Guthrie. Attending graduate
school in business at the University of Virginia, he formed a trio called the
Dixie Mountain Boys with folksingers Paul Clayton and Dave Sadler, adopting the
stage name Bill Clifton because his family objected to his musical activities.
In 1952, the group made their first recordings and enjoyed some regional success.
The trio then added banjoist Johnny Clark and began playing more traditional
bluegrass music. After signing with Blue Ridge Records, they appeared on the
Wheeling Jamboree radio barn-dance program. While there, Clifton made the
acquaintance of the Stanley Brothers
and A.P. Carter. In 1955 he published a songbook, 150 Old-Time Folk and Gospel
Songs, which circulated widely among bluegrass musicians. After a stint in the
military, he began recording in the late '50s, releasing five albums over the
next seven years. They were suffused with the sentimental imagery of old-time
songs, and several singles, including "Little Whitewashed Chimney," became bona
fide hits and bluegrass standards.
On July 4, 1961, Clifton organized an outdoor "Bluegrass Day" concert at Oak
Leaf Park in Luray, VA, featuring a reunion of Bill Monroe's original bluegrass
boys, the Stanley Brothers, the
Country Gentlemen, Jim & Jesse, and
several other top bluegrass acts. Although it was only an all-day rather than
weekend-long event, the concert is generally recognized as the first bluegrass
festival, as the progenitor of the hundreds of grassroots campground gatherings
that flourish annually all over the U.S. and Canada. Clifton's concert didn't
make much of a splash with the general public at the time, but key figures in
the folk-music world were paying close attention. Clifton himself was hired as
one of the organizers of the Newport Folk Festival in 1963, and Carlton Haney,
one of the attendees at Clifton's Luray concert, went on to organize a larger
event in Roanoke in 1965. From that point on, the modern bluegrass-festival
movement grew rapidly.
In 1963, Clifton and his family moved to England; he played in local clubs and
other small venues around Europe. In 1967 he joined the Peace Corps and spent
three years in the Philippines. While there, he visited New Zealand, recording
an album with the Hamilton County Bluegrass Band. Clifton occasionally returned
to the U.S. to record, and also kept recording in Europe. In 1972, he returned
briefly to America to play his first bluegrass festival circuit. Encouraged by
the experience, he began visiting the U.S. more frequently and recorded more
regularly, signing with County Records. For his third album on the label, he
formed the First Generation with mandolinist
Red Rector and banjoist
Don Stover. After the album's release,
the trio toured the bluegrass circuit for the remainder of the 1970s. In the
early '80s, Clifton and his family moved to Virginia, where he worked as a
businessman. However, Clifton continued to perform at bluegrass festivals and
occasional concerts into the '90s.
