The concept of Electric Blues slowly evolved over time. I've wanted to establish a web site for some time, but I wanted it to have purpose, I wanted it to tie into something I'm interested in, and also something that might interest other 'Net surfers. I believe I have found that purpose and interest. Electric Blues went on line Oct 10, 1997. This site is a place to share thoughts and info on the Blues in general, and contemporary electric Blues in particular.

5.0 - Awesome - Essential Listening 4.5 - Excellent 4.0 - Very Good 3.5 - Good 3.0 - OK 2.0 - Not So Good 1.0 - Drink Coaster       One of the main components of Electric Blues is the Artist/CD Index. This section has grown to become an extensive directory of National, International, and Independent Blues artists, and includes links to artist websites and online purchasing information. Also available in this section are CD ratings and comments by EB visitors from around the world, as well as links to online reviews. The strength of the CD ratings lies in visitor input. You may or may not agree with the initial evaluation of a particular CD. If, on the other hand, several people have rated a CD, those combined ratings carries much more weight.

      Electric Blues also gives away free CDs every month, in the Promotional Free CD Giveaway. Other tid-bits of musical interest are here too. There is an Online Music Stores page, which organizes several major on-line stores in one location for easy access. This page includes website listings for for imports, specialty, and hard to find items. Once you're done with EB, there's the Web Links Page, a list of quality Blues and music related web sites.

If you are a BLUES artist interested in the Artist/CD Listings, Giveaways, and Netcasting featured on ElectricBlues.com and ElectricBlues Radio, please read my Music Submission Info page. All CD's submitted are subject to my evaluation, and only Blues CDs will be included on these sites.
