Re: R.I.P. 'Honeyboy' Edwards
For me the end came when Howlin' Wolf passed away. I am stuck in the middle. I respect the Delta Blues,
but I can't abide the modern day "Chicago Blues" My favorite blues artists all cut their teeth in Chicago, but what
that sub-genre is today is dead to me. I'd always take it over rap or dubstep, haha, but I can't hear too much.
I know Elwood hates to hear it and Jake is rolling over in his grave to hear it, but that's how it is, haha.
I was pretty torn up when Son House passed some years back, but I never realized there was only one
true tie left alive. Sad.
