I Guess That's Why They Call it The Blues

The Blues.   We all get them sometimes and there are plenty of songs to share them......

Have You Ever Loved A Woman, Blues in ‘A’, Early In The Morning Blues, Driftin’ Blues, Still Got The Blues, Blues Power, Every day I  Have The Blues,  ……………

@nyadrn I have a CD copy of Robert Johnson’s 1930’s recordings put together by Columbia records in the 60’s including the songs “Cross Road Blues” “Sweet Home Chicago”.

Johnson was one of the first inductees of the Rock and Roll hall of fame for his Delta blues style music and influence on Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, all the British Blues bands and Eric Clapton, (hence Clapton’s tongue-in-cheek reference to Clapton is God with dog hiking its leg at the thought)
