(30,745 posts)I did not know that you are a blues nerd. I am, too. Did you grow up anywhere near Chicago?

I started on the blues in part because of the Blues Brothers and because as a rock fan i kept seeing Willie Dixon's name on cool songs.
I got a bit obsessive about it for a while... Well I still am I suppose.
