Best blues documentary ever

This is by far the best documentary about Blues I’ve ever seen. Well done to the producers, I’ve learned a lot!

The beginning of a musical journey

I made it a mission this year to broaden my musical horizons - you know, spice things up a bit. I started off January diving deep into the blues scene, and boy, did I stumble upon a gem of a podcast! Liam, the host, not only breaks down the roots and history of blues, but he also gave me a sneak peek into all the other musical genres that I’ll be embarking on this year and the influence blues has had on them. Highly recommend.
