Bill Magee brings blues to Hoyt Park
“I love playing these outdoor concerts and I especially love playing Scripps Ranch,” Magee said. “I did it a couple of years ago and I enjoyed it so much. They really get into it. They love to dance and we just have a good old time.”
The Bill Magee Blues Band consists of drums, saxophone, keyboards, guitar and bass, but this isn’t some generic blues band fresh off the shelf. No, Magee has a long and distinguished blues career, so the Hoyt Park audience is in for a real treat. Magee has performed alongside such legends as Jimi Hendrix, James Brown, B.B. King, Muddy Waters, Otis Redding, John Lee Hooker, Wilson Picket and Bo Diddley. In addition, he has played in venues big and small, including Madison Square Garden, the Apollo Theater, the Fillmore East, Yankee Stadium and Shea Stadium.
Magee was born in Mississippi and later moved to Ithica, New York when he was 13. He picked up his first guitar at age 14 and learned to play. At 16 he joined his first band with a bunch of college students from Cornell University, he said.
“When I got out of high school I knew I wanted to be a musician, so I moved to the Big Apple and that’s where I hooked up with Jimi Hendrix, B.B. King, James Brown and Otis Redding,” Magee explained.
“Jimi was not a big star then. He was just another guitar player in New York City,” he said. “In fact, he wasn’t even using the name Jimi Hendrix. He was going by Jimmy James.”
Magee joined a band with Hendrix called Jimmy James and the Blue Flames and played in 1964 and 1965.
“So, we played the Village, played Connecticut and upstate New York and places like that,” he said.
It was about 1966 when Jimi Hendrix went to England and the rest is history, Magee said.
“About the same time, I went on the road with James Brown and after that, B.B. King. I used to work with B.B. King. I used to work with Otis Redding,” Magee said. “I put together my own band, the Kansas City Playboys. I toured Russia, France, England, as well as all over the United States.”
Magee’s roaring blues whirlwind slowly began to unwind as the disco era began.
“In New York we used to play like seven nights a week … Then the disco thing came and we went down to three or four nights a month because everybody wanted a deejay,” Magee explained. “Then in the ’80s here comes hip hop and I wasn’t playing any hip hop. So, I got out of the business and retired from it.”
He was burned out, Magee said. He had three children and his wife was expecting another. He said he was always touring and wasn’t around much to watch his children grow up, so he told his wife he would get a day job and stay around to watch his fourth child grow up. He believed that was the end of his music career.
“I told my wife, ‘If I ever decide to leave New York, I’m going to move to San Diego. That place is beautiful,’” he said.
Magee worked a normal job in New York from 1984 until 1987 when he packed up his family and moved to San Diego where he got a job as a salesman for the Yellow Pages phone directory. But his music career would be revived about six years later.
“In 1993, I woke up one morning and, like overnight, I told my wife, I said, ‘Look, I got to play again,’” Magee said.
So, he began slowly, playing at coffee shops for tips.
“You don’t forget how to play, but you get rusty,” he said.
Six months later, he started to venture into night clubs for performances again. When he was younger he played around 200 shows a year, he said, but today he is much more selective about where and when he plays.
“I don’t tour as much as I used to because touring is hard,” he said. “When I was young I loved it, but as you get older, going on the road is hard, man.”
The last extended tour for the Bill Magee Blues Band was in 2016 when the band played in Canada for six weeks. The band recently returned from Las Vegas. On Sunday night, the blues will be right here in Scripps Ranch in a big way.
“We’ll be playing strictly Chicago blues. That’s all we’re going to be playing all night long,” Magee said. “It’s high-energy. It will definitely get you up on the dance floor.”
Enjoy the Bill Magee Blues Band from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in Hoyt Park on Aug. 13, part of the 2017 Scripps Ranch Symphony in the Park Series. This concert is sponsored by Sharp HealthCare. Visit symphonyinthepark.org.

I don’t even know how I ended up here, but I thought this
post was good. I don’t know who you are but definitely you’re
going to a famous blogger if you aren’t already 😉 Cheers!
You helped me a lot with this post. I love the subject and I hope you continue to write excellent articles like this.
Hiya! I know this is kinda off topic but I’d figured I’d ask. Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe guest authoring a blog article or vice-versa? My site addresses a lot of the same subjects as yours and I feel we could greatly benefit from each other. If you happen to be interested feel free to send me an e-mail. I look forward to hearing from you! Terrific blog by the way!
Do you mind if I quote a couple of your posts as long as I provide credit and sources back to your weblog? My website is in the very same area of interest as yours and my visitors would really benefit from some of the information you present here. Please let me know if this okay with you. Thanks!
Heya are using WordPress for your blog platform? I’m new to the blog world but I’m trying to get started and set up my own. Do you need any coding knowledge to make your own blog? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I just could not depart your web site prior to suggesting that I extremely enjoyed the standard info a person provide for your visitors? Is gonna be back often in order to check up on new posts
My programmer is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP.
I have always disliked the idea because of the costs.
But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on various websites for about a year and am concerned about switching to another platform.
I have heard excellent things about blogengine.net.
Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress posts into it?
Any help would be really appreciated!
I have been browsing online more than 2 hours today, yet
I never found any interesting article like yours. It’s pretty worth
enough for me. In my view, if all web owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the net will be
much more useful than ever before.
