Heavy Metal Roots & Branches Post #4
Muddy Waters, B.B. King, Howlin' Wolf etc, were very instrumental in the genesis of Hard Rock & Heavy Metal. The Blues is the foundation for Rock & Roll and all it's children. If you want a little proof just listen to any Hard Rock group from the 1970's, Free, Bad Company, Led Zeppelin, Mountain, The Jeff Beck Group, Humble Pie, and more played a Heavy Blues/ Hard Rock that morphed into the Traditional Heavy Metal of bands like Thin Lizzy and UFO.
With a very quick search, I couldn't find any info on B.B. King's piano player Kato, if any one could elaborate a little please leave the info in the comments section.
