Some Thoughts on Much of Modern Music History: Part 2
We have covered the African-American influence on Rock and Roll and Bluegrass Music. Of course, Blues Music is still going strong in lots of venues and a lot of areas of the country. Maybe it is stronger than ever before. It is also my favorite music as I stated in my first post.
Some thoughts on Much of Modern Music History: Part 1
When I look at most of the music that I hear today I can trace the roots of that music right back to an African-American heritage. Well all right. I don’t think that there is much African-American heritage in Opera but then again I don’t listen to Opera of my own free will. I do listen to Classical Music more than occasionally and ,with some exceptions, there is not much African-American influence there.

Filmed by Likal.com www.likal.com (by waving my camera around on a tripod at the back of the room to get it over the heads of the crowd, so all things considered, not bad).
Likal love to hear about all events (gigs, sports, anything) in Gloucestershire, esp Gloucester , Cheltenham , Cirencester , Stroud and Tewkesbury, so we can come and film them.
Gloucester Blues Festival is one of the most important UK blues festivals with dozens of events featuring artists from the UK, USA and Europe.
