Last year I taught a series of lessons on the blues
.When I showed the class a recording of Robert Johnson, a student exclaimed that he was going to put his hands over his ears because he couldn't stand this kind of music.
"I don't know why," he said, "But this kind of music makes me feel really miserable..."
But he had to participate in the lesson. The kids had to write (and perform) a blues, he did a good job, though
and I wrote a song about this student's reaction; a reaction that I found very pure.
