that sounded really catchy!
Hi @yuriythebest that is now sounding great keep going!
Wow @Piglet - I’m LOVING this tune bro. So cool, he’s playing that pre-war rural blues style on the harmonica. And come to think of it that Appalachian music I think has its roots in Celtic music so I think it makes sense. But this guy has obviously listened to DeFord Bailey and the pre-war guys for sure! Love this stuff!!! Thanks for sharing.
Hi Luke! Wow, s0 there’s almost like a progression between celtic/irish music-> appalacian/antibellum music-> blues. nice! This is like one of those “cool factoids.” Makes intuitive sense too.
Blues is a mix of West African Arabic, Scottish Irish, and English folk and church music.
Blue grass is a cross between Blues and what Bill Monroe called Old Timey. Country is a cross between Blues, Irish, Scottish English folk. Rockabilly is a cross between Blues Grass Gospel and Blues. Jazz is a cross between French band Music, and African ( which includes Blues but with a more African approach) and Choctaw native American music
In fact it could be argued that Native American music also had an influence on Blues, Charlie Patton was part Cherokee. I’m a bit of a student of American music not just blues. Which is my favorite.
