The history of American sexual mores remains incomplete without reference to the blues songs that anticipated the ‘sexual revolution’ of the Sixties by four decades, and attained a boldness of expression that has only recently permeated popular literature, film and song. The pre-Sixties preoccupation with respectability and decorum, and the blues’ lack of pretentiousness or timidity about sex, gave the blues considerable notoriety for salaciousness.
Bo Carter’s recorded repertoire demonstrates his unusual flair for sexual motifs. While bluesmen like Charley Patton used sexual subjects as a stock-in-trade, they did not share Carter’s affinity for recording them. Perhaps they baulked at doing so through fear of giving offense to whites. Carter’s Hollindale, Mississippi neighbour Eugene Powell, for instance, recalls how a one-time crony of Patton’s once had his guitar smashed over his head by an irate Delta policeman for obliging a white request for what Powell termed a ‘nasty’ song. As a musician whose known clientele (in live performance) was exclusively white, Carter may have felt no inhibitions because he was able to calculate his audience’s tolerance or even relish for sexual material.
In any event Carter’s song subjects reflected a professional rather than personal predilection: his brother Sam reports that he had no interest whatsoever in skirt chasing, or even partying. His songs rather reflect the blues’ basic function – to entertain and amuse their audience.
