Blues music is a true
American art form which has its roots in the rhythms of tribal
African music and the churches of the rural south that injected
a new language, one that soulfully found its voice in the throes
of slavery. This deeply passionate music migrated from the Mississippi
Delta to the streets of cities like Chicago.
It
followed the country's transition from a local, rural economy
to the urban giants brought to life with the Industrial Revolution.
The Blues cuts across all borders and delivers its message of
pathos and loss. Our lasting debt is to these heroic messengers.
The Blues Biographies pays tribute to the people who birthed
this powerful new music and to those who carry the legacy forward.
Blues music greats like Muddy Waters, Junior Wells, Magic Slim,
Son Seals, Luther Allison and Buddy Guy are just a few of the legendary artists represented in the Blues Biographies series. You can purchase
the
uncut DVD's of the TV series as well accompanying CD's.
We
encourage you to visit our growing catalog. It features some
of Europe's best Blues artists, along with Bernard Allison, Pinetop
Perkins, Walter Trout, Charles Brown, Bobby Rush, to name a few.
Our goal is to provide Blues music lovers with a collection of
the finest there is, and to offer additional items like posters,
sheet music and t-shirts available through this site and our
printed catalog.
"Blues Biographies" employs a very successful formula.
