Damn straight. I get the "why is a white boy like you playing the blues?" line all the freaking time. I tell them that the blues is a feeling, not a racially segregated musical genre. If you have to be a certain ethnicity to play a certain style of music, how in the hell can you explain Charley Pride??
I agree. Sub Oslo out of Dallas of the best dub artists I have ever heard, and Bad Brains is one of the best punk bands ever. I don't know what it is about the ska bands though...
Actually me and the other black folx have been discussing Who will take Charley's place when he steps down I would volunteer but my Fiddlin and Geetar picking leaves something to be desired. . . . Charley has held it down for the race for . .what 20 yrs now I think we will nominate Lionel Richie. . . Stuck on You did well in the country charts. . . so . .he might get caught up Rocket River
