I tried to get into all those blues guys when I was way into playing guitar. Eventually realized that I hated it.

I bought the soundtrack to Crossroads. Was super pissed it was a blues album. Wanted the Vai solo. Only reason I bought it. Nope. All Ry Cooder playing crappy blues standards.

I’ve tried.
