Greetings Friends and Blues Crusaders!Well here we are at the beginning of what I hope to be a long and meaningful relationship! With this blog I hope to review CDs from Blues Artists around the world both signed by a label and unsigned! I also hope to add some other interesting blog posts related to my musical experiences and day to day ramblings or at times rants!I don't claim to be some superior musical talent that seems to know all the historical pedigree of the Blues Fathers past to present. I only am offering my humble opinion about what I hear and what I like in relation to the CDs in review. I promise not to rip into any one's CD or musical talents and post bad press, rather I will only post on the CDs I like! I also hope to aid in the press and exposure to these talented individuals that seek out my musical opinion.So I should mention what I like musically. Above all I appreciate real gut filled, from the heart and soul musical performances. I want to hear passion! I cant stand Big headed people that think they're the best I've ever heard. I love all music! World to opera, Rap, Classical, etc. But what do I listen to? I love Gospel, all Blues styles, Soul, Rock 70's, 80's and 90's, and modern Jazz to fusion. And on a rainy day all of the above and maybe some Brazilian Jazz, Afro Cuban and Latin Jazz. Yes I have many interests both musically and artistically.But you can find me listening to http://www.theworldofblues.com/, Bluesville on satellite radio, or to my site Port City Blues for LiveBluesTonight.com Click here to listen to Port City Blues. Listening to The World of Blues as we speak...ah I meant as I write.

Blues Bands Artists I like: B.B. King, Elvin Bishiop, Watermellon Slim, Tommy Castro, Etta James, Pinetop Perkins, Muddy Waters, Chris Harper, John Nemeth, Robert Cray, Room Full of Blues, CoCo Montoya, Luther Allison, The Holms Brothers, Blind Boys of Alabama, Lonnie Mack, Guitar Mac, Guitar Shorty, Roy Rogers, Susan Tedeschi, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Jonny Lang, Boz Scaggs, Sue Foley to name a few!
