(written in the back of a live blues/rock club in LI)
We invented the blues/African people,we hardly play it/white boys are more enthralled, we hardly say it/Muddy Waters is turning over in his grave/hip-hop may be the only thing to save it/live instrumentation is raw and basic/you can punch an mpc/but you can hardly play shit/the soul has been sucked from most of our music/American Bandstands castrated edge for mass appeal/producers can’t play music and we applaud them for keeping it real?/i don’t mind sampling and looping, but i prefer live drums and acoustic/chords & Keys, string ladden basslines, ?uestlove & the Roots shit/
