If you think about what the early black music represented( black people putting to music the frustrations of being lorded over by their masters), it was brilliant strategy to use the dissonant cords and progressions that made up the blues distinctive sound and adopt it for the leftist agenda. It turns out to be ironic that the leftist agenda now is becoming so successful in lording over so many people.

U first too must be young or not southern with all that bullshite

Mississippi delta blues....which being from there...i know... i grew up with it

Its about women problems more than bad white folks

Leadbelly....yes i know.. not Miss....is one notable exception....he had a hard on for crackers

I knew BB King.....Son Thomas instructed my cousin....those men didn't hate whites....they may have resented their hard station early on but hell most rural whites were poor too.....their biggest issues were women...vice...the law ...no money.....not strange fruit

And 2 more points

Rock and roll is as much country as blues....listen to Hank or Jimmy

Blacks were not blackballed.....segregation yes...but folks heard them trust me

Berry like Jerry Lee killed his career due to his wild Johnson....a racially blind animal....the Johnson

And btw.....where did Charley, Son, Robert and Blind get those guitars?

Did their kin bring em over on slave ships?

Nope....evil white man provided and inspired em somewhere along the line

Everything is not about whites being bad to blacks....

That sorta mindset has given us the poor dead black kid cir

I just stand stunned how much folks just eat it up.....

Alan Lomax senior....righteous recorder of great men

His son a liberal turd who overcharges for pics

Btw....whites like Stones....Cream....SRV....and so forth owe no apologies for taking the old music to new heights and really transforming it any more than Jimi owed Dylan
