Been into music as far back as I can remember, I knew the lyrics to all of Hank Williams stuff before I was five years old. Remember a time when there were no Beatles, Stones, Animals etc. You'd turn on the radio and there was....

Gee The Crows
Sh Boom The Chords
Mystery Train Elvis ( a Junior Parker cover. of course nobody knew that back then)

Ya move the dial a little and now it's...

Little Jimmie Dickens
Ernest Tubb
Roy Acuff

I have heard it all, jug bands, primitive blues, jazz, big bands, rock, rockabilly, reggae, R&B, soul, hip hop, rap, heavy metal. alternative, Frank Sinatra, punk, African tribal music, classical, pop, country, primitive Appalachian, American indian tribal music, Demonic Bullshit, gospel.

So who out there can post a video of something that could impress me. Keep in mind I've heard it all from Sparkplug Smith to White Buffalo.

Not looking for that usual pack of little shits who do...0...but run their mouth. Either have a video and play along or go bug someone more on your level.

All new to you.

What total fools they make of themselves in the process because they end up showing how truly stupid and retarded they really are.

Sad, but not unusual. That is what typical trolls do these days, they ruin really good message boards to the point that no one wants to post, express their opinion, or join the site.
This is another reason I spend so much time at this board, in order to bash them or bait them into making fools of themselves.
And three quarters of the time they are so dense and stupid, they do not even realize they are being owned, however normal intelligent posters can read it and see it plainly.
This is truth in it's rawest form no matter that they wish it wasn't.
Then we laugh at how foolish they truly are!

The same goes for me.
If you handle yourself with dignity, civility, respectfulness, intelligence, and maturity, then you will get the same in return from most of us intelligent decent posters.

What is tricky is to figure when jazz first started drifting into its own genre distinct from blues.

It's perplexing to track the roots of blues, so much influences into a genre.

The blacks brought the rythmn and beat with them from Africa, then once on the plantations they put it to the realities of their world. The hard times , the social injustice, the violence. Field chants and hollers and gospel were the roots to what we'd hear later on record. Keep in mind there were no "recorded" blues until the 20th century, with Mamie Smith's "Crazy Blues" in 1920 considered the first blues tune, it's not but close.

In the very beginning it was female singers backed by bands, that went on from 1920-1924. In 1924 we started seeing the men finally getting into it. Papa Charley Jackson a banjo player from Louisiana, Daddy Stovepipe out of Alabama and Ed Andrewa a Georgia guitar player the first men to record. Sylvester Weaver recorded in 1923 (from Kentucky) but it was just a guitar solo and a piece with Sara Martin. In 1926 Texan Blind Lemon Jefferson showed up, he would become the first male "star" of them blues. but a notch below the great Bessie Smith. Jefferson a "country blues" artist, Smith more of a "classic" performer.

While the "Missisippi Delta" gets a lot of play the blues ddn't originate there. But, no state rivals Mississippi in the quality/quamtity of notable blues singers that would come later.

Robert Johnsdon didn't record until 1936 and a lot of what he did was mimic the songs he'd heard, adding his own slant on things. He was a fantastic guitar player (freaky fingers) and had a tortured vocal sound. During his short lfe (dead ny 28) he was nothing special. It wasn't until decades later that his music was re-discovered and the rest is history.

In 1926 Texan Blind Lemon Jefferson showed up, he would become the first male "star" of them blues. but a notch below the great Bessie Smith. Jefferson a "country blues" artist, Smith more of a "classic" performer.

While the "Missisippi Delta" gets a lot of play the blues ddn't originate there. But, no state rivals Mississippi in the quality/quamtity of notable blues singers that would come later.

Robert Johnsdon didn't record until 1936 and a lot of what he did was mimic the songs he'd heard, adding his own slant on things. He was a fantastic guitar player (freaky fingers) and had a tortured vocal sound. During his short lfe (dead ny 28) he was nothing special. It wasn't until decades later that his music was re-discovered and the rest is history.

Fascinating, really, the music from that era is so overlooked. I hardly know anything of the music, but it interests me - where would you recommend somebody to start if they wished to gain knowledge of the roots of the music?

Bill Wymans (yep, a Rolling Stone) "Blues Odyssey" book on the subject is as good as it gets. An amazing read full of pictures and maps and everything someone new to the music would need. I'm sure its at Amazon or some where out there.

As far as listening goes give...(The book has a companion CD but they are sold separately)

Bessie Smith
Ma Raney
Memphis Minnie
Blind Lemon Jefferson
Blind Wilie McTell
Lonnie Johnson
Memphis Jug Band
Leroy Carr
Tampa Red
Missisippi Sheiks
Big Bill Broonzy
Lead Belly
Roosevelt Sykes
Frank Hutchison
Emmett Miller
Dock Boggs
Clarence Ashley....original House of the Rising Sun.
Robert Johnson

...a listen, you'l get a great feel for the music there. That will take you up to around 1938.

The great Charley Patton you'd save for last, you'll see why.

I bet I could post 500 music videos here that nobody here has ever seen. Nobody here has ever heard of...

What about the person who posted the video on youtube? Do you think they heard it?

Been into music as far back as I can remember, I knew the lyrics to all of Hank Williams stuff before I was five years old. Remember a time when there were no Beatles, Stones, Animals etc. You'd turn on the radio and there was....

Gee The Crows
Sh Boom The Chords
Mystery Train Elvis ( a Junior Parker cover. of course nobody knew that back then)

Ya move the dial a little and now it's...

Little Jimmie Dickens
Ernest Tubb
Roy Acuff

I have heard it all, jug bands, primitive blues, jazz, big bands, rock, rockabilly, reggae, R&B, soul, hip hop, rap, heavy metal. alternative, Frank Sinatra, punk, African tribal music, classical, pop, country, primitive Appalachian, American indian tribal music, Demonic Bullshit, gospel.

So who out there can post a video of something that could impress me. Keep in mind I've heard it all from Sparkplug Smith to White Buffalo.

Not looking for that usual pack of little shits who do...0...but run their mouth. Either have a video and play along or go bug someone more on your level.

All new to you.

It's not what you do, it's how you do it. I'm not sure how much more clearly I can explain that to you.

I don't get why you place so much importance on starting threads. Threads don't work unless people participate in them. I'm making your thread more interesting (your welcome, btw). If I were you, I wouldn't be so thread proud, since the majority of yours are posters calling you an old, limp dicked, fat pedophile. You seem to take pride in getting shit on. It's pretty weird, if you ask me.

I just have too much going on in the real world to care about participating on a message board on a level like you do. Maybe if I was old and retired and had nothing but a garage full of almanacs and blues records to keep me company, I would start a bunch of shitty threads and get off on people giving me negative attention.
