Title
YEAR OF THE BLUES 2003
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- In 1903, on a lonely train platform in Tutwiler, Mississippi, African American composer W.C. Handy encountered a man playing “the weirdest music I had ever heard," an unexpected sound that would soon expand to become the most influential form of American roots music. And although it reverberates to this day across the globe, both on its own and through the many genres of which it is the foundation - including jazz, rhythm and blues, rock 'n' roll, soul, and hip-hop - it is still known, quite simply, as the blues.
