But I’m not the kind of guy that goes around wearing a Stevie Ray Vaughn t-shirt and typically I’ll favor a good pop rock or jazz tune over the delta blues. When I’m in the right state of mind though a good electric blues album is all I really want to listen to. Like I mentioned earlier I really don’t know what it is that captivates me so much when I listen to blues music. Maybe it’s the methodical drawn out blues chords (which works equally as well with both jazz and rock music) or it may be the sheer authenticity of the vocals. Whatever it is it’s a symptom that plagues more than just me. People just seem to be naturally drawn to blues music. Even those who couldn’t tell you the difference between Lightin’ Hopkins and Howlin’ Wolf or those who probably couldn’t name a blues artist off the top of their head if their lives depended on it will stand in awe in the presence of a well crafted blues or blues-rock song.
