living chicago blues
O ‘Delta Blues’ é o começo de tudo o que iria ser categorizado como blues, a música era usada como canto de louvor religioso dentro de igrejas e também em bares e prostíbulos da época. O ‘Chicago Blues’ faz parte do inicio da eletrificação do blues e descende direto do ‘Delta blues’. Isso ocorreu por volta da década de 40 devido à migração dos artistas do Delta do Mississipi para Chicago, eles saíram da zona rural e foram para as grandes cidades em busca de oportunidades e acabaram criando ali uma nova vertente do blues com características e estilo próprios. O ‘Chicago Blues’ caracterizou-se pela adição de bateria, piano, baixo e mais tarde pela adição de instrumentos de sopro (saxofone, trompete, etc.), isso tudo devido à possibilidade de uso da energia elétrica das grandes cidades. Deu-se assim o inicio das famosas ‘big bands’ de Chicago, tendo o ‘Chicago Blues’ influenciado toda a música da época e outros estilos de blues que viriam depois.
