“Blues commands the present moment, demanding that you forget the woes of your past and deal with the trials ahead. It demands that you get into this song and this feeling right now and, like gospel, give yourself entirely over to the inspiration.”-from the STAX Museum
I love this quote, and I’m still constantly inspired by our recent trip to Memphis. We’re back in Boston, but we’ll never be the same after our first pilgrimage to the Home of the Blues!
