“Bluesy and Jazzy." Western music has lots of musical influences, including blues and jazz. For example, western swing is a jazz form. Today's show will be all western songs that have strong blues or jazz elements, drawing on form, instrumentation (we'll hear sax, trumpet, clarinets), improvisation, chord progressions and rhythms. Enjoy this melange of musical sounds.
