Jonny Lang – Angel of Mercy

Tagged Jonny Lang 

Jonny Lang sings “Angel of Mercy” Live For The Crumpled Ball.

This song played in funk style seems to be very predictable until 4:10 when suddenly a solo of Jonny Lang turns into an exciting blues-rock tune. This is one of the incarnations of Jonny that we love most.
Blues is a musical genre known as the folklore of African-American musicians. Its origins are associated with the southern states of the USA, that is the region conventionally called the “deep south”. The very name of the genre (sadness, despair) is related to its nostalgic form, also in the textual layer. Blues pieces touch male-female relationships as well as feelings and emotions (love, loneliness, faithfulness, jealousy). However, blues performers often sing about freedom, work and travel. The songs also feature social criticism relating mainly to racial inequality and political issues.

Many artists are inspired by blues music and combine it with other styles. In this way, such musical mergers as punk blues, soul blues or blues rock. The popularity of this genre in the USA has led to the emergence of regional varieties, such as Louisiana, New Orleans, Texas and Detroit blues. There are also factions characteristic of other countries – British blues and African blues.
