Please note:
This all new History Section of the Earlyblues.com website is being built to replace the original 18 year old Earlyblues.com History Section and is entirely dedicated to the history and evolution of the Blues. It is being developed over time, re-creating the old format content into a new more manageable format together with extended content. To keep each section as complete as possible there will be links to the old format where the material has not yet been re-formatted. When this is the case please click the back button or just close the page to return to this new format section.
