I have many interests including the history of the Blues music. Blues is the name given to both a musical form and a music genre shaped within the African American communities in the Deep South of the American States at the end of the 19th century from spirituals like church songs, work songs, field hollers, shouting back and forth while working. It was revitalised by early sixties youths from the UK. I have also taken to learning blues guitar i must say very late in life. So it is a struggle when ones mind is past its learning best.

I am also in the process of painting some of the leading figures in the history of the blues. Oil painting is another interest i have so will probably be posting some of my work in future.
