| | BLUES FACTS AND INFORMATION |
 | | Blues is a vocal and instrumental music form which emerged in the African-American community of the United_States. | | | One kind of early 1940s urban blues was the jump_blues, a style heavily influenced by big_band music and characterized by the use of the guitar in the rhythm section, a jazzy, up-tempo sound, declamatory vocals and the use of the saxophone or other brass_instruments. | | | Both recorded blues and country can be traced to the 1920s, when the popular record industry developed and created marketing categories called "race music" and "hillbilly music" to sell music by and for blacks and whites respectively. |

| | A healthy dose of ragtime country blues is heard on "Was Ya Blue," a number that finds Debbie stretching her acoustic legs a bit and the piano expertise of Dan Katz, whose craftsmanship is heard throughout the entire album. | | | Though he sports an acoustic guitar on the CD cover, this set is electric blues, in more ways than one. | | | Slim goes through many genres of the blues on this disc and all of them work well, which is usually hard to say for someone who covers so much ground on one CD. |

| | Music of Puerto Rico - Genres: Jazz |
| | It is the first indigenous genre of music in the United States to affect music throughout the rest of the world. | | | Traditional jazz is meant for dancing with a tonal scheme that can be easily recognized, while the modern version is intended for listening and characterized by dissonance or a tonal scheme that can be barely recognized by the average listener. | | | With such diverse roots and equally diverse expressions of the genre, it is very difficult to say precisely just what is jazz music and what sets it apart from other genres. |

| | It's the music of the downtrodden, the outcast, the jilted lover and dealers with the devil; but it's also the music of wild celebration, of ecstatic and intoxicated states; and in the case of its sister, gospel, of religious rapture and hope of salvation 'beyond' this mortal coil. | | | Dr John, the famed Night Tripper, born Mac Rebennack, was in demand for piano and guitar session-work from the late '50s onwards, but made his breakthrough and essentially invented his own musical form with his debut solo album, Gris Gris in1968. | | | Often considered the Queen Of Gospel, Mahalia was born in New Orleans on Oct 26th, 1911 and admits to an early penchant for 'the devil's music', particularly that of Bessie Smith. |

Andy's roots are deep in the pre-war blues of Robert Johnson and Son House, but he can also electrify a crowd with invocations of Buddy Guy and the late Luther Alison. | | | His original sound is a hybrid of second line, swamp funk, blues and zydeco with influences from Paul Butterfield, Big Walter Horton, James Cotton, Muddy Waters, J.
