How different would the music world be without Michael Jackson?
Since Michael Jackson is a huge influence on today’s music, I was just wondering how different music, especially pop music, would be if Michael Jackson had never entered the music scene. What do you think? Would pop music be very different from what it is today?
music would suck!
Please suggest your favorite jazz and blues artists?
I’m looking for emphasis on trumpets and other brass. It’s weird, but going to the dentist made me realize how much i like this music.

How do I get my music to save to the iTunes library?
I download my music form Frostwire(same thing as Limewrire). I get the music in the library and it goes to my iPod and everything. The next day when I go to iTunes, the music is not in the iTunes library BUT it is still in my iPod and everything. The only way I can listen to music on iTunes is if i plug in my iPod. Otherwise there is no music on the library. What can I do?
You can’t….. iTunes knows those files are illegal and now you have yourself some problems….what you do is buy your music, and then it will show in your library…

This amazing concert brings together some of the true pioneers of rock ‘n’ roll music including Bo Diddley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard, James Brown, Fats Domino and B.B.King. Recorded in Italy in 1989 it features these legendary artists in performance of their best loved tracks such as Papa’s Got A Brand New Bag, Bo Diddley, Great Balls Of Fire, Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin’ On and Blueberry Hill. At the end of the concert all the performers come together for all-star jam that leaves the audience hollering for more.

The Sunflower River Blues Festival: Part 2
The second Sunflower River Blues Festival I attended went much better weather-wise. I remembe Charlie Musslewhite playing in the acoustic stage and provided a great performance. I believe this was one of my favorite concerts of all time. There were lots of local musicians that played sets and there was a local guy named Mr. Tater that – well I guess you just have to hear Mr. Tater to understand his music. I don’t know how to begin to describe it. I do know that he has been recorded. I don’t know if the recording is still available.
Who do you think is the best country blues singer?
Or who would you suggest me to listen to? I don’t have much at all, but I really really like that style of music, and am interested in it. I want some more, but where should I start?
Jimmie Rodgers, the Father of Country Music, who recorded all those great Blue Yodels as well as The Brakeman’s Blues, Never No Mo’ Blues, Desert Blues, Train Whistle Blues, T.B. Blues, Long Gone Lonesome Blues, Mississippi River Blues and many, many more. Great stuff!
