Blues and Soul

Most of the songs follow the same path: they come out from the instruments, go thru your ears, reach your brain, you feel some joy, and then they die short after. But with Blues is different. Blues has an interesting characteristic that it can bypass not only your ears, but also your brain, and go straight to your soul. That’s right, it will touch your soul. Some people may like it, others may feel that their privacy has been compromised. But make no mistake: it will touch your soul. Very feel things in life will touch your soul. Blues will.
If you haven’t been to a Buddy Guy’s show, most likely you haven’t experienced this feeling to its deepest magnitude. Let me try to describe you what a Buddy Guy’s show looks like. Going to a Buddy Guy’s show is like going to a massage house. But instead of taking of your cloths, you take off your whole body, and your whole brain, and just leave your naked soul. Then you lie down your naked soul on this relaxing bed, and then this powerful energy will massage your soul, for 2 ½ long hours. That’s the closest that one can describe his show. Therefore, if you haven’t been to one yet, please hurry – the guy is almost 70 years old. After you’ve been to his show, you’ll understand when someone suddenly stop you and say: “you damn right I’ve got the Blues!!!”.
