Using superb photographs by some of the world's leading blues photographers, The Blues charts the evolution of blues music from its origins as a form of African-American expression at the beginning of the century, through its heyday in the 1920's, when the genre accounted for eighty percent of all American phonograph record sales, to its emergence as the primary source of inspiration behind both the rock and roll revolution of the 1950's and the British rock movement of the 1960's and 1970's.
