Kenny Wayne Shepherd Blues Award Nomination Revoked

So, because the kid did this, his Dad needs to resign?

That's pretty fucked up.

Fuck the Blues Society...
 
The guy is still a great musician.
I don't recall anyone saying he wasn't.
The point is, it was a dumb thing for him to do.

Then why is his father being asked to resign?

Was he flying the confederate flag? Have it painted on his car?

You mean the car that has been in storage for years and that no one ever sees?

Some snowflake probably saw some picture form 10 years ago

I can only guess. I don't really know anything about the situation...
 
Sounds like country.

blues and country intersect all the time

Blues is in everything. Country and rock copy off each other, but blues is more like
the essential element of both. Jazz fusion shook everything up in the 70's with music like Steely Dan
and Spyro Gyra influencing everything after the mid 70's.

My only connection to the Blues Foundation is the $500 I donated to their relief fund for blues musicians who were put out of work due to the pandemic.
Other than that all I can say is the answer you seek is at blues.org
Check there.

I don't think there has been a more influential style of music

The singer looks like he could be Danny Trejo's kid...

Can you imagine how many Fender Stratocaster sales it's sold ? (Gibson Les Paul's too)
Between Hendrix, Clapton, Robin Trower and SRV - those 4 alone probably account for millions of
them.
not to mention that every other guitar out there is either a Fender or a Gibson clone
 
Absolutely.
He wrote a couple good songs...Deja Voodoo and Blue on Black, but he doesn't sing and
his guitar playing is pretty average, even in blues terms.
I think you might know more about his technical abilities than I do, I have zero musical aptitude of any kind, but I know I like his stuff...... and that's good enough for me.
