Very very little of the music I listen to is on the radio, but hey what ever you want to think old man.

Where is the depth? Can't anyone here actually go beyond.....rap/hip hop....which is about as bad as it gets.
I'm looking at my...

I bet you only listen to rap/hip hop...huh?
Someones reading comprehension sucks, I already mentioned in a previous post what I listen to and know about.
Anyone done wasting my time on an old pedo, have stuff that needs to get done tonight.
Dude, you calling me a pedo tells us about where you're reading comprehension skill are at. Where have I ever said anything other than ya shoot sick ass pedos, well?
Dude, you have no depth.
Wrong as usual.
I own some rap and hip hop, enought to know it sucks. I have been places where my black friends are listening to it, it's weak. I know that music far more than a rap fans knows blues, jazz, etc.
Stupid, show us anything where you get pedo from, yep, you can;t. Cool lying guy,ok? Dude...obese??..hahahaha~~~
Three song set, all about staying in a mood.
Rap, hip hop..hahahaha~~~~~~~~~~~~~

One of those .....who?....but great artists.
What happens once ya reach 18?
Bottom line is when you've heard it all, the rap/hip hop just doesn't measure up. So much better stuff out there.
Wayne was damn good back when I was in my teens.
At this stage of things I'm into historical importance. Did the musc make a difference? Way beyond just noise going nowhere with nothing important about it. The rappers with their....I talk can do nasty.......is so stupid. None of that silliness will endure the test of time.
Yep, if I were some young black kid who knew...0...about music, ok, hit me with some early Drake, Cypress Hill, Snoop Dogg, etc.
A few hours ago I mixed a tape.
Muddy Waters 1941
These are his very first recordings, they were recorded right there at the Stovall Plantation on his front porch. The word.....important...fits.
I have my fav four tunes he does there then I added other Mississippi Delta cats who recorded around that time, cats like....
Robert Johnson
Charley Patton
Honeyboy Edwards
Son House
Tommy McClennan
Robert Petway
Bog Boy Crudup....huge influense on Elvis
Robert Lockwood
Sonny Boy Nelson
Mississippi Moaner
Big Joe Williams
Bukka White
....here we have some historically important music, not just a bunch of crap going nowhere doing nothing.
Ya mix a drink, light a few candles and incense, now ya take a journey back in time, to a world far away from this one. Sure beats the out of some cat .....PARTY OVER HERE PARTY OVER THERE.....

Was pumping gas at Applegates, when I hear this thump thump thump, turning around I see a car load of little brown heads, yep....Mexicans. They were playing some rap ....LOUD. I was done pumping the gas and going to leave so, it. BUT...if I'd just pulled in and was going to have to listen to that while pumping my gas....nope. It would have been...."gentlemen, how about turning that down, ok?" Yep, size does matter.
I've noticed who gets off on rap.
Getting back to yodeling. I could post a bluegrass concert totally on par with any rap/hip hop concert, where we have banjos, fiddles, yodeling, mandolin.
What sucks is when a person knows next to nothing about all the other music. They are stuck on one genre.
In the last 24 hours....
Willy DeVille
Tom Waits
Donnie Elbert
Lowell Fulson
Gillian Welch
Natalie Merchant
Nina Simone
Red Hot Cillie Peppers
Harry Connick Jr.
Depth
A 90 min tape
side A
Blues from Brownsville
Sleepy John Estes
Hammie Nixon
Allen Shaw

Sonny Boy Williamson
Charlie Pickett
Yank Rac
B
Sonny Terry and Friends (harmonica player, vocalist who backed others)
Sonny Terry
Brownie McGee
Woody Guthrie
Lead Belly
Lightnin' Hopkins
Big Joe Williams
Blind Boy Fuller
This takes some time, some research.
"Riding the Blinds"
Yep, songs about trains and hobos. Talking 1920's up to today. You better know the music. Yep, depth.

Other times, it's just gotta be....
Rollin'
Rollin'
Then there's always Milton Brown, Bob Wills, and that Western Swing.
Bottom line is......depth. I pity those stuck in one gear.

When I first stared schooling myself on them old blues I would read about Charlie Patton. He was The King of the Mississippi Delta, and I had never heard him. So there I am at Borders in Visalia checking out the CD's. EUREKA...a blues compilation with....Pony Blues Charlie Patton....one of the 20.
I raced home, ran in the house, tried to break into the CD and ya all know that hassle. Then finally....
What???? This is the great Charlie Patton? It did take some time before I finally got it, yep....the guy was great. It was me.
Now I own everything the guy recorded, a three CD set.
Yep, depth.
You mix...
Son House
Willie Brown
Henry Sims
Bertha Lee
Tommy Johnson
Rosa May Moore
Ishman Bracey
Charlie Taylor
Lucille Johnson
Kid Bailey
Charley McCoy
Robert Johnson
Bukka White
Freddie Spruell
Geechie Wiley
Mattie Delaney
Rube Lacy
Garfield Akers
Bobby Grant
Joe Calicott
Skip James really doesn't belong, he was from Bentonia, which isn't in the Delta. But....he is on a par with everyone there other than Patton and Robert Johnson.
This is a true blues classic.
That picture is from the 60's when he was rediscovered, the song is from 1930.
In the movie "Oh Brother Where Art Thou" when Tommy Johnson, the black bluesman starts playing and singing around the camp fire, he is singing one of Skip James tunes "Hard Time Killing Floor". Why they didn't have Johnson (Chris Thomas King) doing one of his own tunes?
Tommy Johnson the first one to tell that sold my soul at them crossroads story. Robert Johnson and Peetie Wheatstraw (St. Louis piano player) stold it.
Yep, depth.

We have three kinds of blues cats.
1. only recorded prior to Muddy Waters (1941) Charlie Patton, Bessie Smith, Robert Johnson, Blind Lemon Jefferson
2. only recorded after Muddy Waters John Lee Hooker, Lightnin' Hopkins, Howlin' Wolf, BB King
3. recorded before and after Muddy Waters Son House, Blind Willie McTell, Mississippi John Hurt, Bukka White
Then ya look at what region a cat belongs.
Texas
Mississippi
Georgia
Memphis (sometimes grouped with Mississippi as The Delta)
Louisiana
St.Louis
Alabama
Piedmont/East Coast
Chicago blues came a little later on.
Yes many many times a record company puts a cat in the wrong region, just laziness.
, I own a Lightnin' Hopkins CD, where two songs are Lead Belly, two others Josh White. and neither sound anything close to Hopkins.
I found this a few weeks ago, how I didn't know this great tune existed.....shame shame shame.
Gotta love....when the darkies gather round and all begin to shout
What happens when a trained choir tries them blues?
Yep, depth.
This was recorded right there in a Texas prison. You will think.....I know that tune.
So much incredible stuff out there, to limit yourself to this.......is it making $$$$$$.....that's sad.
I have this one song where a confict is singing about going home, he must sing....going home....a dozen times. So after the song the guy who recorded the song (Alan Lomax) asks the guy,,,,"so what were you thinking about there"....the confict..."ah.....well...I was thinking about going home"....hahaha~~~
One of musicdoms most amazing recordings happened in Clarksdale Mississiippi in 1942. Alan Lomax is out on the road again looking for talent. He comes upon a black church, He would record one of the most stunning sounds on record, "See That My Grave Is Kept Clean" by a small group lead by Bozie Sturdivant.
An amazing song.
