I love good rock'n'roll, blues and jazz, gospel, and a little reggae.
The blues - the sound of a sinner on revival day.
We were either listening to jazz or Robert Johnson, the old blues man, but not to our peers.
I was into Jimi Hendrix, Robert Johnson, the blues.
The early Stones were adolescent rockers. They were self-conscious in an obvious and unpretentious way. And they were committed to a musical style that needed no justification because it came so naturally to them. As they grew musically the mere repetition of old rock and blues tunes became increasingly less satisfying.
If I'm soloing, I usually try to start with a theme, which will often stem from the blues.
I love harmonicas - old blues players like Sonny Boy Williamson.
Our repertoire consisted of rhythm and blues, sort of country rhythm and blues, Sonny Terry things.
So, maybe you don't see blues so much in Styx's music but it is definitely part of Tommy's early music.
Shoe Suede Blues is ten years old this year. The Band consists of four members.
Blues is a tonic for whatever ails you. I could play the blues and then not be blue anymore.
The blues are what I've turned to, what has given me inspiration and relief in all the trials of my life.
Johnny Winter is one of the best blues players in the world. He's very underrated.
When I was young, I wanted to be the greatest blues singer of all time. I wrecked my education and left home for it.
