Blues Music

The term "shipfitter blues" refers to a type of music that originated among shipyard workers in the United States. It typically features themes related to the challenges and hardships faced by these workers, such as long hours, dangerous working conditions, and the physical demands of their jobs. The music often incorporates elements of traditional blues music, with lyrics that reflect the experiences and emotions of shipfitters.

Conventional blues typically have three lines per stanza. The first two lines often repeat and rhyme, while the third line provides a resolution or twist to the narrative. This structure is commonly known as the AAB form in blues music.

A verse is a line or group of lines in a song or poem. Two verses would refer to two separate sets of lines within the same song or poem.

my wood

Banjo's are most closely associated with Bluegrass music, but they are played in a wide variety of different music. They were often played in Vaudeville shows, and these days I have heard them in bands playing Contra Dance music, country music, not-so-traditional Celtic music, Folk music. I am not a banjo player, so hopefully someone who is can provide more examples.

19th century

The Former African Slaves invented Blues music as a way to relieve the unhappiness in their lives. People who heard it found it a good therapy for their 'blues' and that's how it got its name.

It was music that was owned by African Americas. a way of how they could express them selves. It was created in the late 19th century.

(all opinion)

people probably try-ed to stop it

both the call and the response could be given by the soloist.

The blues grew out of the African American experience in the early 20th Century, wherever musically inventive people faced oppression and adversity. The blues was developed in many areas of the southern U.S. Each region produced its own dialect of the blues, though the Mississippi Delta and the Piedmont of the Southeast were certainly major centers. Texas had the strongest impact on blues.

I-IV-V chord progressions.

Pentatonic scale with the blue notes added. The blue note is the 4th note of the major scale raised a semi-tone e.g. in A major scale it is D sharp.

There are a lot of embellishments in lead guitar e.g. bends, slides, hammer ons, puller offs, vibrato.

Also 12 bar blues is good. I love to turn around, when playing my twelve bar chi chi cha. Oh yah. That's blues there. I love da blues. But da blues makes me blue.

Also say "I woke up this morning" for that real blues sound.

The Blues in it's most basic form (the pentatonic scale and a I-IV-V chord progression) has influenced nearly every music genre in western culture, so it isn't surprising that it has the ability to appeal to the mass audience. But as for "why" it is seeing a resurgence in popularity is, in my opinion, more about the style and emotion of the music than the structure and music theory behind it. The days of auto tune, sampling, and digital musicians have left a void between the music and the audience. The human factor has been almost entirely removed from the songs. Most people wouldn't notice at first but after years of over processed tunes being pumped into your cabeza you begin to see the charm in a more raw and visceral genre. And that is what Blues is about. The singers don't always have or need beautiful voices; the deep soulful rhythm guitars are muddy and the searing lead guitars blister and hiss; and the solos of many blues songs actually can't be properly defined by music theory (seriously, they sound right but they shouldn't!). There is also the obvious fact that it has the Rock & Roll vibe written all over it and everybody loves Rockstar. And don't mistake the blues as a genre that revolves around songs that start "I woke up this morning". The depth of the Blues is quite extensive from slow, melodic ballad to down right face melting virtuosity; something for everyone. Now, while we probably won't see a massive influx of Robert Johnson albums (a damn shame by the way!) the new school of the Blues will have the ears of millions of audiophiles who are yearning for a more primal and soulful kind of music to speak to their souls not just there Club-ing dance shoes.
