The following episodes are about blues standards; songs that have been played regularly since their inception and thus represent the genre 'blues' within the music world. The songs in these episodes are 'American Blues Standards'; songs with melodies, progressions, hooks and rhythms that musicians can use all over the world without rehearsals.
In my 30 year career as a backing musician I have played many of these songs several times with many blues artists. In the next two episodes I will show a number of standards, which were drawn up based on setlists that we made for a performance.
