Blues Memories

This is the ‘Blues Memories’ section where I invite you, the reader, to let me have your own background to the blues: how you first ‘discovered’ the blues, how this has grown over the years, blues artists you have seen (the older the better!), who your favourite artists are and why, who inspires you most, etc, etc.

Please email any contribution (all welcome) to: alan.white@earlyblues.com
