The Blues is not just a type of music it is a way of life. Originating with slavery in the cotton fields Blues Music is still alive and well even today. The reason that its more than just a type of music is because it comes from the heart and inner soul. It can not be faked, it is a true feeling. The Blues can make you cry and it can make you laugh, it can make you feel happy and it can make you feel sad. I have been a Blues musician for 35 years now, playing the harmonica and singing blues songs. I have even written a couple of Blues tunes. When I am on the stage pouring out the feelings within me in a song and look into the crowd and see the smiles on the faces, it is the happiest I have ever been. It has never been about the money and it has never been about the glory, it has always been about the feelings that i can bring to people, it is about the music. Here is some Blues played the way it would have been back then! have a listen: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLutvInRceo
