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 do listen to Classical Music more than occasionally and ,with some exceptions, there is not much African-American influence there.
