"The Lord Keeps Blessing Me" - Mississippi Mass Choir

Carrying on the religious theme, some contrast. I wonder if many young kids into music, realise almost every modern musical genre was either started by, or heavily influenced by Black people. In the grim days of slavery, Black people would sing as a choir in the fields, to relieve the tedium and grim working conditions. When they became free, they built their own Churches and gospel music was born. From gospel came soul, blues, rhythm and blues and onto rock. Eddie
