Wonderful music, which led of course to the birth of rock and roll iteslf. The blues still permeates almost every form of modern music and great artists like Eric Clapton and Mark Knopfler are great blues players. “Yes gotta be black ter play the blues” may have been true once, but not for many years.Some of the old Fleetwood Mac recordings with Peter Green and Jeremy Spencer are terrific blues gems. I doubt there’s any rock band that came out of the sixties that didn’t start off playing twelve bar.
