(in linear notes)
Notodden is a small town (population c. 22.000) situated about 50 miles south-west of Oslo.
The origins of the Notodden Blues Festival (NBF) go back to 1980 when thirteen local blues enthusiasts got together to promote the blues in Norway, and to promote Norway to the blues scene worldwide. The town has since established strong blues cultural links with Clarksdale, Mississippi.
Since its inception the festival's organisers have watched audiences grow from 2.000 to around 25.000. New Yorker, Ed Murphy, has been the festival's artistic director for many years now and American legends such as Hubert Sumlin, Scotty Moore and Jimmy Witherspoon have all appeared there.
