BLUES NOT DEAD!

The Blues is one of my favorite kind of music although  isn't  very known actually.  However it has a great influence in the development of the rock and the modern music.
The Blues has a wonderful history, it borned of the black hands of the slaves brought of Africa  that worked in the Mississipi's bank. This place was the birthplace of this style of music that tried to express all the poverties caused for their slave's condition. Later will use to sing about everything since love's conflict to social's problems. That was  a revolution in the rhytm of this period because the blues used different ways of melodic construction and other guitar's technique.
Also, Many people doesn't know that the blues is the father of the rock.
There are many musicians that devoted his life for the blues. But there are masters that are essentials. They are the old school that it not dead. This is the case of Jhon Lee Hooker or B. B. King, celebrities of the blues for their talent to play the guitar and create lyrics inspiring who they already keep playing with the same maestry of their young years.
In our country we have good blues bands like la Rata Blusera or Queltehues Blues Band wich are agrupations that rescue the bohemian, rebellious and crazy essence of the blues.
So, it`s why The Blues not dead!
