I watched the blues of the headlights streak with the rain to the pavement. Rhythm and blues is how Elvis got his start. Blues is a true American style of music. I'm so sad today, I got the blues. When the trumpeter was playing the blues, you could tell he was really feeling it. The sky at sunset was ablaze with pinks, blues and purples.

Ummm . . . it is true that blues music characterisically uses, the minor pentatonic scale. altered. The common blues scale is derived from the usual scale (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,1) by removing the 2nd and 6th notes. That leaves you with the notes, "1,3,4,5,7,1" . There's more to it, though: you flat by a half step the 3rd and the 7th. That results in the notes, 1, b3 (flatted 3rd), 4, 5, b7 - 5 notes in all.

Blues music was never "popular" as you imply. It was a music played by initially by itinerant musicians who traveled from town playing for small audiences or simply busking on the street for a few pennies. The first popular, true blues artist was Bessie Smith who recorded for Columbia and her success enabled a very small number of other female blues singers to get recording contracts with competitors of Columbia. Male blues singers continued to work as before until Muddy Waters decided to hop a freight and try his luck in Chicago. There , he amplified his guitar and found considerable local success . However, blues in America was considered a low class music and it was only the keenness of European aficionados in the early 60's to arrange tours by some of their idols that led to the resurgence of interest in the music. It is more popular now than at any time in the last century.
