You're right, Jaybro, nothing like a little repression to crystalize resistance. People have been a little too passive.
But look at what Mic and Boys just put out, right in their lily white faces:

Very authentic and totally urban, proving once again that America's greatest contribution to world culture is Black music and Black musicians.

Howlin' Wolf - Back Door Man
I am, a back door man
I am, a back door man
Well the, men don't know, but the little girls understand
When everybody's tryin' to sleep
I'm somewhere making my, midnight creep
Yes in the morning, when the rooster crow
Something tell me, I got to go
I am, a back door man
I am, a back door man
Well the, men don't know, but little girls understand
They, take me to the doctor, shot full o' holes
Nurse cried, please save the soul
Killed him for murder, first degree
Judge's wife cried, let the man go free
I am, a back door man
I am, a back door man
Well the, men don't know, but little girls understand
Stand out there, cop's wife cried
Don't take him down, rather be dead
Six feets in the ground
When you come home you can eat, pork and beans
I eats mo' chicken, any man seen
I am, a back door man
I am, a back door man

After playing together for 30 years, the mainstay of Argentine blues separated in 2008. A few years later, lead singer Adrián Otero died in a car accident, so there won't be any reunion concert.
Memphis, La Blusera is the blues.
