Electric blues

rdfs:comment

Electric blues is a type of blues music distinguished by the use of the electric guitar as a lead instrument and the amplification of the instruments, including the lead guitar, bass guitar, drums, and occasionally the harmonica or keyboard. Pioneered in the 1930s, it emerged as a genre in Chicago in the 1940s. It was taken up in many areas of America, leading to the development of regional subgenres, following its adoption in regional scenes such as Memphis and Texas. The genre had fully developed by the 1950s.

"Boogie in the Park" by Joe Hill Louis. It featured Louis playing an overdriven, distorted electric guitar solo while playing on a drum kit at the same time. Goree Carter's "Rock Awhile" featured an over-driven electric guitar style and is considered a strong contender for the "first rock and roll record" title. James Cotton's "Cotton Crop Blues" , featuring Pat Hare playing a heavily distorted, power chord-driven electric guitar solo anticipating elements of heavy metal. Howlin' Wolf's "How Many More Years" is considered the first record to feature a distorted power chord, played by Willie Johnson on the electric guitar.

n87:abstract

Electric blues is a type of blues music distinguished by the use of the electric guitar as a lead instrument and the amplification of the instruments, including the lead guitar, bass guitar, drums, and occasionally the harmonica or keyboard. Pioneered in the 1930s, it emerged as a genre in Chicago in the 1940s. It was taken up in many areas of America, leading to the development of regional subgenres, following its adoption in regional scenes such as Memphis and Texas. The genre had fully developed by the 1950s. Electric blues was instrumental in the development of electric guitar techniques such as amplification, distortion, power chords, and string bending, and is credited with bringing heavy guitar sounds into popular music. It was a foundation of rock music, which adopted its dense texture, electric guitar techniques and basic blues band instrumentation from electric blues. It influenced rock and roll, particularly in the mid-1950s, and more so classic rock in the 1960s. It was widely adopted in the British blues boom of the 1960s and led to the development of blues rock. Electric blues laid the foundations for hard rock and heavy metal, and influenced the development of rockabilly and soul music. It continues to be a major style of blues music and has enjoyed a revival in popularity since the 1990s.
