@kailuagirl87 yeah, for me blues recordings sound too polished today but like albert says everybodies had the blues one day or another so it's always there to sing about i guess?

@PBANDSNOW Yea, thats one good thing about youtube is independent artists can make their music a lot more accessible for the public. But it is a bit hard to find really good blues. There's some good jazz still, but blues is less believable today. The significance of Albert King's era is there really was something to sing the blues about. Atleast more than today.
