My topic is Blues music and how it started almost all of the different genres of music known today. For example, Blues went to rock and roll, Rock and roll went to country or something along those lines. I am doing an exhibit and I need a catchy title to draw people in to look at it. I’m looking for something not too long, not too short, and creative. Any ideas will be considered. Thank you ahead on taking time into reading this and doing me the favor of answering.

The project deals with the history of blues, such as slavery and spirituals, and the growth of blues music through America.
