| | Trombone Page of the World |
 | | Although virtually all jazz groups prior to the rise of bebop in the early to mid-'40s played for dancers, the term "dance bands" is used to describe orchestras of the 1920s and '30s whose primary function was to play background music for dancers rather than to serve as vehicles for jazz improvisations. | | | The classic female blues singers of the 1920s were the first to get on record and the first to have hits in the genre, subsequently reaching a national audience and starting the first great push in recording blues music of all styles. | | | But Acoustic Blues is not limited to merely guitar music; its "acoustic" appellation being an elastic enough term to also include mandolin, banjo, piano, harmonica, jug bands, and other non-electric instruments including home made ones, like the one string monochord bottleneck diddleybow. |

| | Blues and Jazz |
| | In jazz the performer often improvises (alters the melody and rhythm, as is done in the blues) to create new or different sounds that add to the emotional expression of the song. | | | Jazz musicians create their own version of the melody while they are performing. | | | Blues singers made slight changes to original melodies and rhythm in order to add emotional expression, including sounds of moaning or crying. |
