Every Music Genre Has The Blues

Saw David Bromberg a couple nights ago, and he mentioned that every music genre in the US has a blues.  Got to thinking, he is right.  With the exception of maybe opera or some classical stuff, jazz, rock, country, bluegrass, and so on, all have blues songs.  Not the Willie Dixon blues but blues based on that genre.

I thought this was a pretty cool observation.

David's show had Jorma open for him and they played together.  Two old legends still showing their stuff.  David said he had three more shows and then he was retiring.  Hadn't seen him since 1978, and he was still having fun, as were we.
