by C. Michael Bailey
It is really no longer appropriate to call American Music American. It is Global music and that is all it can be. Gone are those days when shellac and vinyl discs had to be exported. Music from anywhere on earth is as close as one's computer. Norwegian blues? Why not? Guitarist and composer Berdon ...
