I can't imagine a Blues band without a singer.   It's 99% vocal, although there are purely instrumental blues tunes played in the blues and Jazz genres.You can't say this on a saxophone:  "Got up this morning, got me a jug, and laid back down."Cheers

Great stuff, esp Waller and Ella with Duke and Pops. The sound of Ed Sullivan’s voice made me cringe. I remember back in the day when his show was the hottest thing on Sunday night TV. Back in the days of three networks only.I remember when the Be... 
Audiophile demographics?
Why are there a disproportional number of male audiophiles? Maybe, just maybe, women are too intelligent to buy into, what a person has to buy into, in order to be considered an 'audiophile'.examples:  hearing wire and fuses.  Claiming LPs are ...
