    Maybe you could play a couple of her songs that show us the 12 bar blues in her singing? Next vid?

    Thanks Valerie. I'm not a musician but I love Jazz/Blues. I now have an idea what the terms I've heard mean.

    Thanks! Back in the early '70's I took a class at UW (go Dawgs) The History of Jazz taught by Joe Brazil. This video refreshed a number of old memories of that class in the depths of my brain 🎶🎵🎶🎵

    Wow! I'm in very deep water. You won't see me by the piano any time soon (!) but I loved watching you 'work' explaining the blues. I have a feeling you touched home with a lot of aspiring artists who, I'm sure, appreciated your efforts very much.
    Valerie, always nice to see you!

    Always love your reactions to AJ, but this was really special, enjoyed the info on the blues/jazz style. It helps to understand what we are listening to.

  • @ronjones1077

    I always look foreword to your Angelina lessons . Anything to do with her and maybe a couple of other of my favorite artists is going to grab my attention. Thank you so so much as AJ would say.

    Thanks Valerie for this explanation of what makes the "Blues" the "Blues." Much of it flew right over my head, but I enjoyed it anyway.

    With Billie Holiday known as 'The Lady Who Sings The Blues', combined with
    Angelina's own words that she would not be the singer she is if not for the
    influence of Billie Holiday, tells listeners a lot of what makes up Angelina Jordan.
    Thank you, Grandma Mery Zamani, for exposing Angelina to this type of music
    so early in her life that she herself loved.

    Genius: Exceptional intellectual or creative power, the greatest musical genius of our time is Angelina Jordan. Can one be hypnotized by sound? Shamans use rhythmic drumming and chanting to achieve control over a mind. Angelina's is unique in that she has the ability to create audios that trigger your brains "frequency following response". She has the ability to create a euphoric addiction to her total being similar to drugs, but without the side effects, she is in fact, salubrious, like nothing I have ever experienced in the past, or more than likely to in the future.

    Thanks, Valerie. Although most of your comments went right over my head, you did get me wondering if Angelina was going over one of the scales you talked about when she was playing piano and making notes at the start of: the Creation trip of the song "Oslo".

    Thanks!!! I would love a session focusing on the melismas (vocal runs) Angelina adds to the melodies. They can be quite extensive, seem complex, and seem to be always perfectly selected.

    Valerie, I LOVE your reactions and this explanation of the Musical Structure of the Blues was excellent! I would like to offer a more detailed examination of the historical origin of the Blues. While certain scales used in the blues have been shown to be similar to West African music, it would be a mistake for one to think that the Blues (as Music) was simply brought over on the boats with the enslaved. The earliest record of the blues comes from the Post Civil War "Reconstruction" era in the South. The first person to Identify and Use the Blues Form in his Written Music was W.C. Handy, who composed "St. Louis Blues". Handy himself recounts that he was waiting at a train station south of Memphis TN in the "Mississippi Delta" (Not the Delta of the Mississippi, but the Yazoo River Delta where it joins the Mississippi!). This was in a very rural area, inhabited by sharecroppers descended from the freed slaves. There he heard a solo folk musician (busking!) singing and playing some "low mournful tones" that stuck in his head and eventually led Handy to expose this form to his audiences.
    The musical forebears of the Blues include prison work songs (rhythmic chants, really) "Gandy Dancers"; Gospel church music and earlier religious music in the Black Churches.
    When the blues was brought to New Orleans/St. Louis & etc. by Handy and other band leaders it merged with the Rhythms of "Congo Square" and the classically trained urban black musicians of the cities , eventually spawning Jass (Original spelling of Jazz) as well as the Orchestrated Blues which Bessie Smith and her fellows played in Saloons and Music Halls.
    In the "Delta" the musical form remained more basic and gave us Son House; Robert Johnson; Muddy Waters other "Delta Blues" artists Some of whom migrated to Northern Cities (Chicago; Detroit & etc.) adopted the Electric guitar and became the "Chicago Blues" style which eventually mutated into Rock & Roll!

    Wow very informative, even to someone like me with limited musical ability.
    It would be great to see you do the same to explain various techniques Angelina uses.
    You could discuss her vibrato, melismas, runs etc.
    It would be interesting to understand her technically, even though listening to her is enough.

    I really appreciate you. You are a class act and really care about the music you react to, not to how you can increase your UA-cam numbers. Please continue your journey with Angelina, especially as her first Republic album gets released, and the general public gets to listen to the lovely soul of this beautiful person.
