Another slight "WTH?" moment
Blues isn't as old as we all thought.
http://www.myfavouritemagazines.co.u...s-the-blues-2/ In fact, according to the vague copy in that ad, it didn't exist until after Robert Johnson's death. Who knew? Coming next month, 'The Complete History of Jazz: 1947-2012' |

Maybe they just mean there hasn't been any great Blues since the '70s. [edit]Jeez, I should have clicked "post" before getting sidetracked... but I guess Mal was talking about Jazz, so my comment still stands.

I don't know most of those names, but Joanne Shaw Taylor's good.

But they didn't say it was GREAT blues on the CD - just the best young'uns we've got now. Maybe they're elitist jerkholes, but they're trying to be subtle about it.

Maybe they were just talking about the history of recorded blues.
And they originally meant for that magazine to come out in 1995.
