DOWN THE ROAD TO THE REAL BLUES
Almost everyone have tried to define the blues,almost everyone have been asked,"what are the blues?" Simply put,the blues is a joyous way of coping with pain and sorrow,a way to express the intimate feeling of being in love and being loved in return.The blues is lamenting over a love one,the anguish of having too much month left over after the pay checks are gone.The blues is a state of being, a state of conditions.Blues legend Johnny Shines once said,"the blues is all about life.".Soul singer Garland Green may have described the blues best when he said,"it is a backdoor world when your front money is gone".If you ever come down with a severe case of the blues,and you just want them to leave,try blues great Travis"The Moonchild"Haddix remedy,pretend that the blues is a "Jawbreaker." If  The Moonchild remedy does not work,try the Magnolia Revue blues pages.This is the place to wile your blues away. A place to learn about blues greats such as Muddy Waters,Muddy as he was affectionally called  down on Stovall's plantation."Man I did it all down there on Stovall,man I tried to gamble,and I made and sold whiskey.I didn't stick nobody up,but I was successful with my whiskey,though.I use to make that jive,had me a little still back out in the bushes"he said in a interview after he left Stovall.Also there are links to great music,and historic blues sites,and proflies on current r&b musicians,as well as up and coming blues musicians,those who will carry the torch.
Blues legend Johnny Shines(Shoe-Shine Johnny)was born April 25,1915 in Memphis,TN. Put it  simply,"a lot of things we call the blues today really isn't.The blues is not wrote,it is a feeling of life and death."
