Outside a small group of fans, they were not considered as real musicians or artists! I saw Muddy Waters in Paris behind 25 people... And don't envy me at all. It just means that I was already there 50 years ago...Gerard Herzhafthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02847006282160108348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1397344573389990556.post-91795475785306914082014-02-08T20:12:33.726+01:002014-02-08T20:12:33.726+01:00...nothing else I can add to all comments above, I......nothing else I can add to all comments above, I completely agree with all said; but I wanted to show my gratitude to you, and to your effort in avoiding the Blues going down the drain (have you noticed young people don't know a thing nor care about it ?)(I'm 51... and trying to make my 17-yr old daughter get interested in the Blues --starting little by little). AND thanks for your incredible thoroughness in dates, personnel, etc., so necessary in this genre.<br />Cheers from a humble follower of your blog in Madrid, Spain.<br />P.S: Just envy you for having been able to chat with all those Blues giants as you've told here.

Having been introduced to the blues in 1960, I know that it has not always been easy to keep music listeners excited about this great art form.
