today i started to research about the twenties and how the music of the twenties have been affected by the blues. Jazz which is a type of music that been highly influenced by blues, was the music of the time. The twenties were even named after the music "The Jazz Age". It was a great time for music, America was on an economic incline, which gave many musicians the opportunity to come up and get noticed. Another thing that helped out the blues/jazz music scene was the prohibition of alcohol. It caused the opening of speigiezies(a secret bar) were music needed to be played to entertain the customers.
