When I first heard Mongolian folk music I couldn’t believe how many similarities to blues it had, similar rhythms, same scales, same riffs, and that deep growling throat singing, gee if that ain’t howling wolf, I started to think that maybe somehow the migration of mongols to America who then became indigenous Americans might have shared their music with African Americans? That’s my theory!”…

I miss mistakes! A lot (but not all) of music nowadays is totally devoid of mistakes.  Digital recording definitely affords the opportunity to fix mistakes, and I think this is often taken advantage of in the pop market. Technology has also afforded us access to a lot of music, so I’m not generalizing all music from the present as being one thing or another.”…

Q&A with iconic blues and soul musician Danny Marks, Canada-based veteran guitarist and torchbearer of the blues

Music can affect us in powerful ways, subliminal and otherwise. I love putting an Al Caiola or Bert Kampfert album on while cooking, Enio Morricone is good to relax with. Nothing beats T-Bone Walker on a Saturday Night or RL Burnside. There are times when I turn the music up, stand in front of the big Tannoys and feel a tingle from head to toe. That's music…
