We knows nothing much about the blues... we called it blues, we called it breakdowns, we called it blues and some people say it's square dances... We didn't know what it was; the achin'-hearted blues is slow, breakdowns is fast - Percy Thomas, who played in the Son Simms Four with Muddy Waters, interviewed by Paul Oliver, from Blues Off The Record

All You Need is Love Series - Blues Segment
« on: August 15, 2021, 07:59:39 AM »
I just came across this 17-part series from the late 1970s, subtitled The Story of Popular Music. In particular, I enjoyed the Blues segment. Some interesting, non-linear editing here, but amazing footage of some blues legends. It opens with Memphis Slim and his astounding fingers on the keyboard and takes you on a journey from there.
