More black people to learn about and embrace our history of blues music. I wish we were able to have more of this in the Virginia/North Carolina area I live in.
On another note: I drove up from NOLA that summer and obviously Nawlins is all about music as well. I guess its easier to make a living with music in NOLA (bigger tourism industry) , but there also is gvnmnt funding of instruments for ALL schools. Now that might be a good idea for Mississippi also. Get instruments and music teachers in all schools and start a state wide blues band competition. Upscale the whole initiative. Just an idea...
Letting you know what i did last summer: stayed in morgan's room at ground zero for a couple of nights; checked out the live gigs downstairs in the club; had a good chat with Razorblade (aha) and got his live cd; cruised round the bluestrail; had a drink with madman Red at the jukejoint and a history lesson by uncle Rat at the riverside hotel. So anyone contemplating visiting mississippi and clarksdale specifically. If you got any love for the blues, go do it! 1love
thank you for the download. i am from clarksdale, but now live in las vegas. it takes me home ya'll!! and its great to see them passing down the blues, teaching the kids,especially as a safe place to learn, clarksdale can be rough.
I wished I could get my son in this. He has such soul and not many oppertunities. Not many blues played around the Texas panhandle.
I was raised in the delta and I grew up hearing the blues. I raised my boy on listening to the blues. That's all I could give him and he has it in him.
@geeyouknit345 You're not all alone. There's a whole Blues world out there, with the internet. Do yourself a favor, and don't listen to that Eric Clapton crap. Get the real thing. Check out the blues history of your own state. It's rich.

Each one teach one! I will be glad to donate to the education of the children so the blues won't die!
