Re: who asked "what is blues" and why?

Hi,
One thing I forgot to touch on is that too often FEEL is not properly taught
in music schools, including some very prominent ones such as Berklee College
of Music. Many teach all the notes, but leave out the feel because frankly,
many oif those teachers haven't quite learned that themselves, but there who
have and feel that it is up to the student to be motivated enough to go and
make the effort to learn it by themselves. One Berklee College of Music
student who dis just that and then some, and who is totally comfortable in
Blues, Jazz, R&B, Soul, and many other settings and can sound like he
belongs in ALL oif those genres is sax player Gordon Beadle (Sax Gordon).
