I think sales are probably something like 50-50, split between
not-so-country country and execrable rap. I'm an Eminem and Dre fan
myself, Lil Wayne and his ilk can drown for all I care, though I must
admit that he certainly knows his audience. :-/
Blues gigs aren't exactly money-makers here
in NW OH USA. :-/
I just came back from a road trip. We have driven over 12000km across
the USA and Canada (Mtl - San Fran - Vancouver - Mtl) and I would
guess, after having overdosed on the commercial/local radios, what
sells must be country music? I think 90% of it was country. On some
parts (SD and NV comes to mind) was either country or static.
Great tracks BTW. It must be fun to experience your
trio live.
Although my current music activities do not reflect that, I grew up
playing the blues and listening to this kind of stuff brings fond
memories.
Thanks for the kind remarks, Michal. Considering what you're into now I
think it would be wonderful to hear how you'd treat a blues these days. :)
Best,
