Keep Talking! - Blues Program (3/10/05)

Welcome to the Consilience Forum Blog.

The following discussion is devoted to the subject of the 10. of March US Embassy's American Thursday presentation: "The Land Where the Blues Began", by Donald G. Fleming and Michael E. Taft.

We invite You here to continue the opinion exchange started in the Q&A part of the presentation. If You havn't had a chance to ask Your question to the presenters, or would like to add something more - here's an opportunity for You to do so. As most of You are probably non-native English speakers, the written form of this discussion may allow You to express Yourselves more fully. Share Your thoughts and impressions about the presentation with fellow participants. Comment on other people posts. You can include links to sites containing related info.

Keep it in English (of course) and related to the presentation subject, and enjoy blogging!

The discussion will be opened since the end of the presentation and will last as long as there is an interest - max. 3 weeks ahead.

The views expressed during this blog discussion are not necessarily those of the USA Embassy.

Here are some Blues internet resources:

I enjoyed the meeting very much -- although having a Polish interpreter broke the flow of the presentation for me (but I'm sure it was very helpful to others). I would have liked to see more of the international folk videos.

I was wondering if there is a young generation of blues artists infusing the form with new blood and new ideas, or directions? If you have any good intrenet links, please share them! Thanks.
