First off, not everyone appreciates the blues, and it was never intended to be mainstream by those who are blues artists. That said, the blues are an integral part of the foundation of much of our modern rock n roll. Many of the most successful rock tunes ever, owe more than just a bit to some of the blues greatest artists. Weather it is melody or lyrics, it is there. The Rolling Stones have always acknowledged that the blues have played a big part in their music, giving homage to the greats that penned and performed music that came from the soul. This album " Blue and Lonesome" is a tribute to some of the past greats that were blues musicians from the 20's through the 60's. The boys do a great job on this album and one gets the feeling that they had a good time putting it together. Most people will probably not appreciate this great piece of work, but then again , the blues aren't for everyone. I give it 5 stars, out out of 5. I hope they cut some more albums..................
