Well... The Virgin Mary is the mother of God. She gave birth to Jesus Christ.\nSaint Brigid was the daughter of Dubtach, pagan Scottish king of Leinster, and Brocca, a Christian Pictish slave who had been baptized by Saint Patrick. Just before Brigid's birth, her mother was sold to a Druid landowner. Brigid remained with her mother till she was old enough to serve her legal owner Dubtach, her father. \n\nSaint Brigid is the Patron Saint of babies and children who's parents are not married.

Only Robert Johnson and the devil know for sure. His friend Willy Brown said the story was true, but who knows for sure.\n\nYou search for both of their names together and you'll find some great old stories, like this one:\n\nhttp://www.cr.nps.gov/delta/blues/people/robert_johnson.htm\n\nHowever, his telling of the event in "Crossroad Blues" can only leave you wondering where the influence for the song came from.

A good place to look for this information is "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" by Maya Angelou.  She discusses the men involved in her life, Daddy Clidell was her father figure.

I always thought Peter Green's story was a really sad one. Although he's recognised in cult circles as a great blues player, unfortunately he was a lesser known name than he should have been. A bit too self destructive to be honest. A casualty of his times. A bit like Syd Barratt.

He released a CD in 1998 called "Alone at Last".  In 1999 he released "Live at The Pheasant".  That's all I could find.  Try looking up some of the blues websites.  You might find something about him there.

The blues, starting with slavery, which was where they formed the blues scale. This scale impacted the way jazz artists wrote their music. As well as the phrasing and the measures and bars, they were also just mutilated forms of the blues. Other than that, you should just type that question into google, and figure out the rest for yourself.

No one on this planet is 100% percent anything because I am pretty sure down every body's gene pool there a mixture of  different races. I am disturbed by this question because it sounds like  you are trying to imply if Beyonce's mother was just a Black woman, which she appears to be because Black people come in all shades and colors, that Beyonce would not be pretty which is untrue. Beyonce's mother parents were French speaking Louisiana creoles and most of them are considered Black.  My grandmother, who have both Black parents, is lighter than Beyonce's mother ,have longer hair than Beyonce and her mother,  have blue eyes and I myself have dark skinned parents but I am light as Beyonce's mother. I have friends who are albino with green eyes that have dark skinned parents and know that their ethnicity is Black. My point in saying this is that there is no certain way a Black person should look.

I am a musicologist and teach in the Bluegrass Program at East TN State University in Johnson City, TN.I am also potterfan's dad. I would like to answer this as an oldtime blues and rockabilly fan.Who could pick for sure, and both of these gentlemen had such an enfluence on rock and pop music, in their own right. Little Richard was one of the pioneers who started it all, but he was only using a format of a more older and archaic style of blues, which he probably was quite familiar with. Jerry Lee Lewis was born and raised in a southern area where both black and white musical influences were prevalent on each other. The blues was the common denominator for both artists,and when you boil it all down, their music was great fun for everyone.
