Blues music. It is the foundation of popular music as we know
it today. It is the music of deep rooted pain, hurt and injustice.
Most people think that it's origin can be traced back to the deep
south to the American Negroes of the early twenties. However it
actually goes back much further than that. Astonishingly enough,
blues music can be traced back to the year 2000 B.C., to the
Hebrews! Sure this must be surprising to most people, but it's true.

amazing new collection entitled. . .
