The smooth tones and melodies in blues music has been a jumping off point for many other genres of music in the world today he said. “The audience should listen to see how emotionally the music pours out of a blues player” Feds said. “When a guitar player or a sax player plays a note and the hair stands up on the back of your neck you get the feeling that that note is coming from some place very deep.
