   Extractions: The King of the Blues turned 80 years old last week. Whereas most 80 year-olds are settled back into their golden years, B.B. is still going strong with 250+ performances a year plus countless appearances and interviews. So apparently the secret to a long and fruitful life is hard work and lots of great music. The greatest national disaster has taken place in probably the most culturally rich area of this country. Most American music can trace their roots directly to New Orleans, and those roots are dying. Time for music fans of all types to step forward and help the musicians that carry on this beautiful musical tradition. Here are places you can help.

FREE Newsletter. Sign Up Now! The piano has earned an honored place in the history of the Blues. Though not as popular or convenient as a guitar or harmonica, the piano has carved out a deep tradition in America's music. Why the piano? Why not the trumpet, violin, tuba, or other traditional musical instruments that were available throughout the evolution of the Blues. Let's take a look at history of Blues piano. Bartolommeo Cristofori is credited with inventing the pianoforte in 1709. Evolving from the harpsichord, pianos had several unusual configurations, including extra pedals, vertical strings, multi-keyboard, and different ranges. Todays modern version of the piano became standard in the mid-1800's. By the turn of the 20th century the piano was well entrenched into the musical psyche of America.

   Extractions: As a Primer, it's an attempt to illustrate the music, the labels and the artists of a particular style but it cannot lay claim to be a theoretical, academic or scholarly treatise. This is primarily because I am ill-equipped to do it well and there are others who are far better qualified to deliver a definitive history of the form. So what you'll find below is an emotional and historically flawed account of the music that the Primer promotes, designed to provide a background and context for what you'll find on the rest of the site. John Lee Hooker Rhythm and Blues was and still is a term used for a number of post-war American popular music forms. The term is credited to Jerry Wexler when he was editing the charts in Billboard magazine (1947). The term was used in the chart listings from 1949 onwards and the charts in question encompassed a number of contemporary forms that emerged around that time.
