I've always loved just about any kind of music. One of my favorite artists is a blues man, Gregg Wright. He's awesome and can play the guitar like nobody else. Hendrix was his idol and you can certainly see the influence. This guy is just as good if not better! You can listen to several of his songs via his website at www.greggwright.com Happy listening! And let me know what you think!

I grew up during the B.B. King era and thought he was great. One of my favorites was Janice Joplin. Guess you could say I am a real blues lover. I also like to dance and the blues is the best for dancing. Never heard of Gregg Wright so will have to listen to some music on his site. Also did love Jimmy Hendrix. Thanks for sending.

I remember when I was in college playing keyboards with a local rock band. We do play some jazz and blues. I like playing the music of Lewis. And also Jimmy Hendrix. When we were playing their songs, it was like the music is flowing into our bloodstreams.

It sounds like you would love Gregg Wright then! Be sure to check out some of the music clips on his website or Facebook. I've found several more on youtube. Enjoy!

Personally listening to some Good Blues music is good for any soul. It can actually be quite relaxing, and actually I think is a type of music even with the words that people can relate with. I work with someone that even though he is a local singer pretty much out there unknown he can sing some Good Blues for sure. The great thing is I work with him and have heard him.

I agree, blues is a good sound for healing. Good conclusion there! Did you happen to check out any of the clips from Gregg Wright?

Pretty cool. Cry me a River, huh? He's good, no doubt. I do love B.B. King. I remember when he guest starred on The Cosby Show, I think it was the late '80s. I remembered him, so when I got older and I had money of my own, I bought a few of his tapes. Back then, they were tapes. B.B. King did a duet with Eric Clapton once that I thought was great too.

BB was great too! Cry me a River is one of my favorite tunes of Gregg Wright. He is so talented--writes a lot of his own stuff too! Glad you enjoyed it!
