music

well... my favorite musical genre is the blues.
When I listen to blues, I can go through different moods: from happiness to sadness or vice versa. Well, that's what this musical genre is about, which originally were stories of injustices experienced by American workers. That's why I like blues, because it's feeling but it can also be protest.

This musical genre originated in the Afro-American community that lived in the United States around 1900. They made public their labor demands through this music characterized by its lyrics and its structure of twelve measures. Structure that has been the base for many bands of the second half of the XX century, ex. Led Zeppelin, Ten years after, Grateful Dead, etc. However, some icons of the blues are: BB King, Freddie King, Buddy Guy, Junior Wells, Jimmy Reed, Robert Johnson, among others.

It has been said on multiple occasions that the blues is a possible derivative of the gospel that African Americans sang in the US, although there is no known "absolute truth"
Finally, the instruments that stand out in the songs of this style are the guitars, harmonics, often saxophone and keyboard. In addition to the characteristic husky voice of the blues singer that excites anyone.
