Tracing its origins from the Mississippi Delta to its amplification in Chicago right after World War II Davis argues for an examination of the blues in its own right not just as a precursor to jazz and rock'n roll. The lives of major figures such as Robert Johnson Charlie Patton and Leadbelly in addition to contemporary artists such as Stevie Ray Vaughan and Robert Cray are examined and skillfully woven into a riveting provocative narrative.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: The History Of The Blues The Roots The Music The People\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Davis Francis\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Hachette Books\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9780306812965\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 320 Pages\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 9\/4\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Blues","brand":"Davis Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49594198098225,"sku":"IN-G-9780306812965","price":20.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9780306812965.jpg?v=1754876090","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9780306812965-the-history-of-the-blues-the-roots-the-music-the-people","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
