    These words are more appropriate now than ever - the man was a genius

      The blues grew up in Satchmo’s horn, on Duke’s piano and Langston’s poetry, on Robeson’s baritone, on Gil Scott’s rap.

    Yes, the 'Blues' is as American as apple pie, but it's interesting that we in the UK took it to our hearts and loved it!

      He handed us the relay baton and now it’s up to us to carry it a little further and hand it over to some else.

    very very appropriate for today. appropriate in dead-on truthfulness, but also inspiring and comforting, like the blues.

    And his last album let the blues pass by was “I’m New Here”. Epitaph for our “half-assed freedom”: Song of a human being arriving in an Atlantic crossing from Africa and disembarking in this country from a tall masted slaver, anew, again and again. This man is immortal.
