typical response for a moron who is at a loss of words because he has been humiliated.  sure , sure Corky, for anyone who's reading this check back a few pages on here for my post that shows you where the banjo comes from. I even have the expert opinion of a liberal Jew who says the banjo is not of Black origin.:cool:Even alot of Jews are tired of Black centric lies. You just took this right off of the wikipedia. Same crap over and over. For anyone who is reading this, look back a few pages on this thread and look at my post about the origins of the Blues, complete with expert opinions. First of all as I've already showed you a million times moron, blue notes are not indicative of African origin, so called blue notes can be found in British/Celtic folk music, even in Chinese folk music, they are not purely African at all, I don't think they even are African at all, the blue notes are indicative of Celtic/British influence actually. So called call and response is not uniquely African either, by the way. As people have proven to you on that other thread in the OV to those who say whites stole rock from blacks. Black slave work songs, field howlers and spirituals come from White Christian spirituals and hymns, from Christian Gospel that comes from Europe. As myself and others have already proven before, God you're a pain in the ass. It's just the same little BS articles you post over and over again like a broken record. Everytime they are proven wrong and everytime you post them religiously. ]What does Blind Lemon Jefferson have to do with anything?   Alot of Black people have played Jazz music and Blues music, obviously, so they've influenced music in that way, but they didn't invent anything, they just played music. They didn't start jazz or the blues or rock n' roll in any way shape or form. They just played it, they created music, but they didn't invent music, there is a difference young grasshopper.  Since when did blind lemon jefferson create the Blues? Just wondering when that happened:rolleyes:  --------------------------------------------------------  well you're right about this part. So far so good, you're catching on.Absotively.  Which were the creations of White men. We've been over that. What's your point ?  Improvisation is not some African thing, Classical musicians used to improvise all the time, and in European folk music, since when is improvising a Black thing? Only since some ni##er wrote this article you're quoting from the wikipedia. ;)  Riight the Blacks abandoned it and White man took it from them. Good excuse:p Nobody is buying it except you. We stole Bluegrass from the ni##ers, yep. Sho nuff! :rolleyes: Just like Blacks were the first to settle Ireland and the Egyptians were Black but Blacks abandoned the place and Whites moved in.....riiight. It's just afro centrism at it's best, because deep down you all know Blacks have never invented anything. Only learn things from Europeans/north Africans/Middle Easterns. Bluegrass was around before that they just didn't call it Bluegrass. What is your point with this? I recognize all of this crap from the Bluegrass article on wikipedia, you just rip unreferenced BS straight from the wikipedia and it's suddenly the word of God. Bill Monroe didn't create Bluegrass he just thinks he did in his own mind. He just gave it a name.  Dude! We've been over this a million times you keep posting this same lame article over and over again. Elvis wasn't even the first rock star. Elvis kicked off his career covering a Black song? That Black song was Hound Dog and it was written by two Jews named Leiber and Stoller , so if anything it's a Jewish song! Not a Black song, just so happens that the first singer to perform this song written and created by Jews was a big fat negress named Big Mama Thornton and her version sounded nothing like Elvis's. It's not a Black song. Just a fat ni##er sang it first because Leiber and Stoller let her sing their song. Nobody liked her version, they liked Elvis's. Elvis's musical influence and training was in County and hillbilly music, kids used to make fun of him for playing hillbilly music. He used to listen to Country music all day long, he memorized every Hank Snow song, his earliest musical training and influence was from Country/Hillbilly music. And also Gospel music, and Gospel is not Black, we're talking about European originated Christian Gospel music. When Elvis got older in his teens he used to go down to Beale St. in his hometown of Memphis and listen to some of the Black Blues players, so what? Go listen to Elvis's music, it's not Black boyo, it sounds countryish , sounds hillbilly. To this day Elvis Presley's music gets played on Country stations as much as it does on Rock stations. Plus...since when was Elvis Presley the first rock star?He wasn't. Since when did Elvis Presley invent Rock N' Roll music? He didn't.  Elvis was 1/32 Jewish:rolleyes: And was a Christian all of his life. So in other words, Elvis was White. ;) Elvis Presley was not a Jew. Once again...Elvis Presley did not create Rock music. Bill Haley and the Comets released Rock Around the Clock in 1954 and it was a huge hit, Elvis Presley never released his first album until 1957. Besides, I, as well as many music historians consider Move It On Over by Hank Williams to basically be the first Rock N' Roll song, it was Rock n' Roll before it had a name. From 1947.Exactly. And Elvis wasn't 1/16th Jewish, it was 1/32 I know that now.  Yes Elvis was 1/32 Jewish and had absolutely nothing to do with the Jewish religion/system. What's your point? Should I be obligated to throw his 1/32 Jewish ass in the gas chamber or something?:rolleyes: You do know that even the nazis accepted anyone up to 1/4 Jewish right?   It's not Jazz necessarily, it's Louis Armstrong. It's Black Jazz. And if they thought Jazz was about Blacks being promoted by Jews I can't blame them because Jews always did promote Blacks in the Jazz business, they are the ones responsible for creating and perpetuating the myth of Jazz being Black music. This is why all of the old White Jazz groups like the ODJB used to get so pissed at people who would say Jazz is Black music. That is why even to this day most White and even Jewish Jazz musicians get pissed when people call Jazz Black music. It's a Black/liberal Jew promoted and perpetuated lie. But most people realize this, even most Black Jazz musicians dont' call Jazz Black music they say it has no colour, that it is American music. (but it's White and I think most of the Black Jazz players know it whether they admit it or not;)). ---------------------------------------------------- Dude..you have problems man I've posted the story of the guitar on here for you a million and one times by now. The Spanish and the Europeans already had guitars before the Moors arrived in Iberia. The Spaniards were already playing guitars that were descended from the Roman CITHARA long long before the Moors showed up. The Vikings also were famous for their 6stringed lute, which was for all purposes..a 6string guitar, and they had introduced this 6string all over Europa and elsewhere during their travels. Plus... the Moors weren't Black anyways, moron. So what if the word guitar comes from Persia or whatever? What point are you trying to make? It would be reasonable that the Europeans, Persians and Indians had similar words because they all speak Aryan aka Indo European languages. No big surprise, you're talking about a name, just a word. Plus, the ancient Persians were White Aryans anyhow. Many Persians aka Iranians still do look White, but most have been mongrelized and the culture has been Islamized.   The modern guitar is descended from the Roman cithara brought by the Romans to Hispania around 40 AD, and further adapted and developed with the arrival of the four-string oud, brought by the Moors after their conquest of the Iberian peninsula in the 8th century.[5] Elsewhere in Europe, the indigenous six-string Scandinavian lut (lute), had gained in popularity in areas of Viking incursions across the continent. Often depicted in carvings c. 800 AD, the Norse hero Gunther (also known as Gunnar), played a lute with his toes as he lay dying in a snake-pit, in the legend of Siegfried.[6] By 1200 AD, the four string guitar had evolved into two types: the guitarra morisca (Moorish guitar) which had a rounded back, wide fingerboard and several soundholes, and the guitarra latina (Latin guitar) which resembled the modern guitar with one soundhole and a narrower neck.[7]  The oldest known iconographical representation of an instrument displaying all the essential features of a guitar is a stone carving at Alaca Huyuk in Turkey, of a 3300 year old Hittite guitar with a long fretted neck, flat top, probably flat back, and with strikingly incurved sides.  The Hittites were White Aryans by the way, just like their neighbors the Trojans, Greeks and Lycians were.
