Is it weird for a kid in modern age to like music like the blues…?

My parents hate the music so i didn’t get it from them im a white kid too… my friends at school think im weird because all of my influences on guitar are Blues Artists like robert johnson, muddywaters,etc. im 14 btw I just feel like im weird because i dont like the music that everyone else listens to.

not at all
it’s the father of modern music for a reason
the feelings and messages in the music are so universal that most people that have some musical feeling can connect to them

 1994


1994


$12.99


When Shawn Camp cut his self-titled album for Warner/Reprise back in 1994, he was riding the coattails of two charting singles from his debut the previous year: “Never Felt So Good” and “Confessin’ My Love.” The artist, management, and industry insiders assumed the set would be a breakout. When it was turned over to the label, however, it was deemed “uncommercial,” and a wave of changes was “suggested.” (This was the era when Travis Tritt, Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, Trisha Yearwood, and Martina McBride had broken wide open and were topping the charts.) Camp refused and the album was shelved. Fast forward to 2009 when Warner Music Nashville President/CEO John Esposito caught Camp at a guitar pull during a music conference and was impressed. He discovered that the company owned the album, and went through the steps to bring it to market. On the one hand, one can almost exonerate the company for not releasing it at the time. Compared to the aforementioned artists, Camp’s meld of rootsy acoustic and electric instruments playing bluegrass and honky tonk-inspired modern country music was nowhere on the charts in 1994. That said, excellence is excellence: nobody ever told George Strait he couldn’t release a record because he was too country. Camp’s collection of originals and covers is timeless; it sounds “classic,” not nostalgic. Other than the choogling opener “Near Mrs.” with its up-front Telecasters and tight ringing snare drums, everything else here is far more traditional. Whether it’s a moving ballad such as “My Frame of Mind,” the broken-hearted two-step “Little Bitty Crack in Her Heart” with its whinnying fiddles and Dobros, the electric bluegrass in “Stop, Look and Listen (Cow Catcher Blues),” or the midtempo honky tonker “Worn Through Stone,” this album is the place where the history of country music meets the future and melds rather than clashes, for a lone reason: it’s honest. The record espouses a quiet passion, even in its humorous moment…

 A Brief History of the Blues


A Brief History of the Blues


$14.99


There’s a little bit of everything on this generous 21-song set, from unaccompanied hollers to 1930s Delta blues and modern electric blues stuff, as well, so there is the outline for a history of the blues here, but it’s hardly spelled out, and in the end it feels mostly like a pretty decent to ordinary blues mixtape. There’s some great stuff here, though, like yet another vibrant version of Elmore James tearing into “Dust My Broom,” Mississippi John Hurt’s measured and graceful “Stack O’ Lee,” Big Mama Thornton’s wonderfully ragged “Hound Dog,” and Bessie Smith’s passionate yet still stately take on “St. Louis Blues,” making this sequence an OK fit for a short, blues-filled road trip. ~ Steve Leggett, Rovi

 A Tribute to Stevie Ray Vaughan [Video]


A Tribute to Stevie Ray Vaughan [Video]


$12.99


The 1996 concert video A Tribute to Stevie Ray Vaughan gathers Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy, Robert Cray, B.B. King, Art Neville, Dr. John, and brother Jimmie Vaughan to celebrate the talent and life of the modern electric blues guitar virtuoso. Double Trouble and the Tilt-a-Whirl Band support these stars as they interpret Vaughan’s songbook in an 80-minute concert; brief interviews with the featured artists enrich the proceedings with even more respect and affection. Highlights of Vaughan’s performance on the PBS series Austin City Limits hit home just how great a talent was lost when he was killed in 1990. Ultimately, though, A Tribute to Stevie Ray Vaughan focuses on the uplifting memory of his warmth and musical gifts, keeping them alive with the help of his very able friends. ~ Heather Phares, Rovi

 A Very Special Christmas, Vol. 5


A Very Special Christmas, Vol. 5


$11.99


The fifth volume of the celebrated A Very Special Christmas series gathers some of the new millennium’s chart mainstays and MTV staples, as well as some of modern rock’s rising stars supporting the Special Olympics. It’s more of a tradition, and certainly a welcoming one at that, in the spirit of Christmas. With more than a dozen Christmas favorites, rock & roll shimmies and shakes with tracks by Macy Gray (“This Christmas”), Dido (“Christmas Day”), and Eve 6 (“Noel, Noel”). Classic rockers such as Stevie Nicks (“Silent Night”) and Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers (“Christmas All Over”) also lend a hand. A Very Special Christmas, Vol. 5 does highlight some interesting duets, however. B.B. King and Blues Traveler’s John Popper get bluesy on “Back Door Santa,” whereas Wyclef Jean and Stevie Wonder mix hip-hop and soul on “Merry Christmas Baby.” ~ MacKenzie Wilson, Rovi

 Appalachian Banjo Breakdown


Appalachian Banjo Breakdown


$9.99


Created in 1955, Rural Rhythm Records has released hundreds of classic sessions by bluegrass and country artists like Don Reno, Red Smiley, Mac Wiseman, Vassar Clements, Hylo Brown, J.E. Mainer, and many others, and the label has repackaged these sides in all sorts of combinations for the digital age. Here Rural Rhythm has combined some of the best five-string banjo tracks in its catalog to make a bright, breezy, and generous 30-track sampler. Among the highlights are Don Reno’s “Limehouse Blues” and Mac Martin’s version of “Sugar in the Gourd,” but most everything here is cut from the same basic modern bluegrass template. ~ Steve Leggett, Rovi
