OMG, 147 views, yet no blues cat, and to think, in a place like this which apparently about the soul, but maybe not, as the bluesmen will all concur, it takes soul to play the blues.

Now, I'm an arrogant music snob, but only because I know about the real human expression and the 'sounds that are marketable', but the most fantastic comes from the soul and is more than popular - it's transformative on the global scale.

Rock music is Black American at is roots, coming from old slave songs, from the gospel of black pentecostal churches, and there were blues and gospel artist, both men and women, with Gospel affording a respectability of God's mission, while the Blues was the devil's deviance.

Whatever, the point is, It's literally out of Africa, as Black American, and like Gods tree of knowledge was inhabited by Satan's snake, The music is the hearken angels, and the whispers of Lucifer's temptation,

My tribute, the one who is true, Nina Simone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4grGAYx9koA

"Four Women"

My skin is black
My arms are long
My hair is woolly
My back is strong
Strong enough to take the pain
inflicted again and again
What do they call me
My name is AUNT SARAH
My name is Aunt Sarah

My skin is yellow
My hair is long
Between two worlds
I do belong
My father was rich and white
He forced my mother late one night
What do they call me
My name is SAFFRONIA
My name is Saffronia

My skin is tan
My hair is fine
My hips invite you
my mouth like wine
Whose little girl am I?
Anyone who has money to buy
What do they call me
My name is SWEET THING
My name is Sweet Thing

My skin is brown
my manner is tough
I'll kill the first mother I see
my life has been too rough
I'm awfully bitter these days
because my parents were slaves
What do they call me
My name is PEACHES
