Early Blues
This is the original ‘Early Blues’ Website, founded in October 2000 by Alan White and regularly developed since then with a vast range of excellent material I hope you enjoy, with contributions from renowned blues historian, author and lecturer Max Haymes, acoustic blues guitarist and blues instrument researcher Dai Thomas, acoustic delta blues guitarist and blues gravestones expert Courtland Bresner, photographer Paul Webster, blues portrait artist Loz Arkle, Midlands reviewer Steve Wosket, and North East reviewer Tony Higgins.
Our purpose is to broaden awareness and understanding of the origins of blues music and to encourage and support live blues music – ‘keeping the blues alive’.
