Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2013
"The Blues is not like any other music that was created for entertainment. The Blues was a product of a repressed but determined minority, people of color that could not speak freely about the demoralizing standards they were held to. Delta Blues was the information highway for Black Americans to communicate about real life and a struggle for freedom. The music touches our hearts and souls from the genuine nature it was created from, I don’t know of any other music that was created under these circumstances."
