Gary Burnett: ‘The Gospel According To The Blues’ book review

For the brand new fan to the true aficionado, The Gospel According to The Blues will give all readers a new appreciation, respect and love for the blues. Author Gary Burnett takes the reader on a journey through an exhaustive history of the lauded genre, providing insight into the authors, musicians and music, along with deeper revelations into its connection to the Christian gospel. You will certainly want to play through the integrated and helpful listening guide at the end of each chapter. Simple Google searching will gain you access to most of the recommended selections. However, we expect this book will inspire many readers to visit their local used record stores for a more in-depth experience and to further immerse themselves in the spirituality and authenticity of the blues.
