Black music? Sorry, but without European harmonic structure, Skeltonic verse, and chord progression imported from Europe, you wouldn't have anything remotely sounding like the Beatles, Ramones, or much of anything else most people listen to. I'm glad Black people used these things and European musical instruments to create twelve bar blues because I like Blues music. I also like Classical and a lot of African and European traditional music and if people listened to more of it, they probably wouldn't assign race to music but simply enjoy it. Thankfully, Duke Ellington and Little Richard didn't frown on the piano as a "White" instrument because I'll get to enjoy their output for the rest of my life.

Please wait...
