The American musical genre known as the blues emerged in the early part of the 20th century out of African- American communities in the deep South -- places like Memphis, Tennessee, The Mississippi River Delta and the fields of east Texas. Many young people are rediscovering the blues, and some are even becoming master players. VOA's Greg Flakus profiles two such artists making their mark on the Texas blues scene in this report from Houston.
在20世纪初的美国南部,例如孟斐斯、田纳西州、密西西比三角洲流域和德克萨斯东部地区等地,美国音乐流派“布鲁斯”从黑人社区中兴起 。许多年轻人都开始重新演奏布鲁斯,有些甚至成为大师级演奏者 。本台记者格雷格·弗拉克斯从休斯顿带回报道,介绍这样的两位音乐人,他们在德克萨斯的蓝调音乐中留下过光辉一笔 。
