Re: A comment on the blues: (very little Who content)

Ah, a man with some information.  What do you think of "Rocks in the 
Head," Howard?  Is there any blues on there? (Of any description?)

>Opinions have nothing to do with what is true blues...But a "blues 
sound" has developed, and there are a bunch of standard-issued blues 
licks.  And "blues" artists play in a very improvisational style.  This 
is what categorizes the genre, but doesn't make for "true" blues. And 
it's what most people are talking about when they talk about the 
blues...I guess the meaning of  "Blues" has to do with context.
