Kevin Belford, of Kirkwood, appears to sign his book "Devil at the Confluence" The Pre-War Blues Music of St. Louis, Missouri
"Belford, a professional illustrator, started out to make a series of portraits in honor of St. Louis blues and jazz musicians prior to World War II. When he found out how little research had been done on them compared to blues musicians further south, he launched a massive project to reestablish the city’s musical heritage. Here he sets the record straight with a wealth of primary research."
