Blues Music
Blues music, or the Blues, originated from late 19th Century African-American communities in the Deep South of the United States. It is characterized by its own unique scale (the blues scale) and chord progressions of which the 12-bar blues is the most common. As a genre, it has remained popular up to the present day, and has influenced other genres of American popular music, namely jazz, rock and roll and rhythm and blues. Well-known blues artistes include Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters and B. B. King (just to name a few). Music Sheets: |
