Thread Name: What brought you to the blues?
Subject: RE: What brought you to the blues?
My friend Chuck, who, in the late sixties, lent me records of Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Alexis Korner, Cyril Davies...generous guy. An early favorite of mine included Ram John Holder's Black London Blues...anyone remember that one? Still have it. Classic. Eventually settled into the old guy with a guitar scene with Brownie McGhee and Mississippi John Hurt as favorites. Funny...blues is the only music I've ever listened to where my taste has never changed, I still like the same people I liked forty years ago.
