Blues music was never "popular" as you imply. It was a music played by initially by itinerant musicians who traveled from town playing for small audiences or simply busking on the street for a few pennies. The first popular, true blues artist was Bessie Smith who recorded for Columbia and her success enabled a very small number of other female blues singers to get recording contracts with competitors of Columbia. Male blues singers continued to work as before until Muddy Waters decided to hop a freight and try his luck in Chicago. There , he amplified his guitar and found considerable local success . However, blues in America was considered a low class music and it was only the keenness of European aficionados in the early 60's to arrange tours by some of their idols that led to the resurgence of interest in the music. It is more popular now than at any time in the last century.
More Blues was created in 1969.
"Blind" Lemon Jefferson 1893 or 1894 or 1897 - 1929 was an influential blues singer and guitarist from Texas. He was one of the most popular blues singers of the 1920s, and has been titled "Father of the Texas Blues."
It would be more correct to say that classical music existed for quite some time before jazz and blues. All three: Classical, jazz and blues - continue to be very popular. Some jazz musicians (Dave Brubeck, Duke Ellington, and others) had some success combining elements of the two together.
