Fifteen places where life and blues collide, according to blues philosopher Todd Mauldin.
Todd is a bluesman, a lay minister, a dad, uncle, cousin, friend, and son. In his own words: “Between points one and 15 is where I live my life. That’s why I play the blues. That’s blues philosophy.”

Apologies there is no open thread, and this was the closest place in musical terms as the last American music to feature the blues, the blue note, to be jazzy was late 80s/early 90s house music.
RIP to one the godfathers of house (and electronic dance) music – Frankie Knuckles

Well expressed. I feel the same but could never have articulated it this well! It all comes back to the blues. 🙂
