"I went to Africa to find the roots of the blues." So Samuel Charters begins the extraordinary story of his research. But what began as a study of how the blues was handed down from African slaves to musicians of today via the slave ships, became something much more complex. For in Africa Samuel Charters discovered a music which was not just a part of the past but a very vital living part of African culture. The Roots of the Blues not only reveals Charters's remarkable talent in discussing African folk music and its relationship with American blues; it demonstrates his power as a descriptive and narrative writer. Using extensive quotations of song lyrics and some remarkable photographs of the musicians, Charters has created a unique contribution to our understanding of both African and American cultures and their music.Binding Type: Paperback

Ok but not that great, pretty bland.
I love Bourbon creams - they are a huge favourite for many Brits as they are the English equivalent of Oreos. Totally unhealthy but unavoidably addictive. So I took a chance to satisfy my craving since I haven't been able to fly back to UK since the beginning of the pandemic. These however, were just lacking. Waitrose or M&S brand is far superior in taste. But they did arrive on time and were well packaged. Of course I eventually ate them all - hoping my taste buds were off ... but sadly, they didn't improve!
