"Why We Love The Blues: A Musical Explanation" Jon Cleary on BRI TV

Why Do We Love The Blues? A Three Minute Musical Explanation By Blues Pianist Jon Cleary

Even people who claim not to like the Blues discover that their favorite popular music likely is based on a familiar Blues structure. Blues Radio International sat down with award winning Blues keyboard artist Jon Cleary after his soundcheck for a performance at the Funky Biscuit in Boca Raton. We asked Jon to explain to us why people all over the world, from vastly different cultural backgrounds, share a common love for Blues music.

Distilling hours of musical theory into a few minutes, Jon offered a compelling answer and musical demonstration.

We included this part of our interview and a live musical track from Jon on our August 17, 2015 worldwide shortwave broadcast to listeners on six continents.
