The Brits bringing it back in the 60's only made them famous. No real plus for Blues Musicians, except for a handful. I've been a life-long Blues fan, but never heard it on mainstream radio until SRV hit the charts in the 80's via his blistering solos on Bowie's progressive "Let's Dance" album. I'm puzzled by how Bluegrass, traditional Jazz, Blues, and Modern Classical music is ignored in favor of over-produced-auto-tuned-formulaic-dance-reruns.

Dad always had a great taste in music but not until the separation did he look to play music regularly on the stereo again. So began my education in Blues, R&B, foundation reggae and soul. I was 10 when I took up the harp, as the preceding years I'd been listening to Little Walter, Junior Wells, Big Walter Horton on the tapes and CD's. I'm 39 now and still listen to blues all the time. Thanks Dad! Glad we've enjoyed it together for so many years.
