Blues, the basis for nearly all modern rock n' roll, originated in Mississippi. The most famous blues player of all time, B.B. King, is from Mississippi, among many others. Blues is not just a style of music here, but a culture all its own. Its influence persists through many different music styles. Mississippi is at the heart of the blues movement - it's culture, heritage, and history, the good and the bad. Indeed, blues may not have ever been produced had MS not had the history that it does.
