Blues Music

On a sadder note, think about all the young rising musiicans who had a real feel for blues who died too young. Jimi, Janis, Stevie, Roy Buchanan, Rory Gallagher, Eva Cassidy, Jeff Healey, among others. If you think about it, Robert Johnson and Little Walter fall in to that category too. It would be amazing to imagine if they could have grown old as musicians, still peforming the blues for us. But perhaps that is what made their blues that authentic. Deperession, addictions, terminal illnesses which many of them suffered from will bring out real blues for sure. I hope today's generation of blues artists like Johnny Lang and Joe Bonamassa live long lives and help keep the blues alive for generations to come.
