This is the premier magazine for anyone with a more than passing interest in the blues. The articles focus not only on the major artists, but also publicize musicians who haven't yet hit the big time or "crossed-over." If you love the music and want a feel for where it is going, and what's going on behind it, then this is the first place to turn.

Just recently introduced to this magazine. I was impressed with the quality of the writing and selection of topics. The fact that this magazine is published by a university that's working to preserve the historical roots of the blues is great.

Living Blues is the Best Blues Magazine I have ever seen. Their interviews cover the famous as well as the not so famous. It is an excellent way to learn the history of the Blues. It also serves as a record keeper of sorts. ie a rundown on the charts, who is playing and where, Feature articles. Just an all around great magazine.

The only problem I encountered from time to time is not recieving the magazine. I think someone was ripping it off

Blues lovers should check out the Mississippi double issue (vol. 35, #2 & #3). This is an in-depth look at the blues scenes (historical and living) of blues performers, locations, events, etc. all over the state.
