Elwood Blues: You may go if you wish, but remember this: walk away
now
and you walk away from your crafts, your skills, your vocations, leaving
the next generation with nothing but recycled digitally sampled
techno-grooves, quasi-synth rhythms, pseudo songs of violence laden
gangsta' rap, acid pop and simpering, ciphering, soulless slush.
Depart now and you forever separate yourselves from the vital American
legacies of Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, Willie Dickson, Jimmy Reede,
Memphis Slim, Blind Boy Fuller, Louie Jordan, Little Walter, Big Walter,
Sunny Boy Williamson I and II, Otis Redding, Jackie Wilson, Elvis Presley,
Leiber and Stoller, and Robert K. Weiss....Turn your backs now and you
snuff out the fragile candles of Blues, R&B and Soul. And when those
flames flicker and expire, the light of the world is extinguished because
the music which has moved mankind for seven decades leading to the
millennium will wither and die on the vine of abandonment and neglect.
