Blues: The literal translation is "Blues", and the transliteration is "Blues". Transliteration/free translation, refers to a musical style. (Hereinafter, referred to as "Bruce").
R&B (abbreviation of Rhythm and Blues, occasionally abbreviated as RnB): The Chinese translation is Rhythm and Blues (rhythm and blues)
"Blues" and "R&B Rhythm and blues", the difference between them: (I don't know who has the ability to explain clearly, I Try to talk about it.)
In the 1940s, in order to popularize this form of black music from the country to the city. Radio stations and record companies coined the nascent word R&B. R&B also tried adding instruments such as piano and drums to differentiate itself from the black blues that played and sang on a guitar in the country, but it was not very successful. In the 1950s, it was still difficult to distinguish R&B from blues, and the two terms were used interchangeably; in the mid-1950s, electric guitars began to appear on the market. In the city, blues bands, more and more use electric guitars to replace classical guitars, and gradually formed a new music classification, rock and roll. The debut Rolling Stones "Rolling Stone" and "The Who" were both marketed as R&B bands; by the 1980s, after excluding rock music, R&B became "Contemporary R&B" (modern rhythm and blues) abbreviation of. It can be a style of pop music that incorporates R&B, Soul, Funk, Pop, Hip-Hop, or even Dance. (What a freak combination... ). As for the blues, it's basically what it is, with the old black person playing and singing on a traditional guitar or banjo.
Overall, R& Like Jazz, B has different forms in different periods. The deformation has become so powerful that sometimes it is difficult for even a brick home to clearly distinguish/define a singer and the classification of a song.
Simone, whose early musical style was Soul/Blues/R&B, learned to play the piano at an old black church as a child. At that time, the black church could only have soul and Bruce, and maybe the Gospel gospel.
When Simone first debuted, it was said in the film that she was forced to play and sing in a bar in Philadelphia because she couldn't get into that piano academy. She was reluctant to tell her mother that she was playing devil's music. Another way of saying demon music refers to rock music. In fact, many white people in the United States learned R&B before the segregation problem and spread it to the white community in the north, calling it rock and roll music. Elvis Presley, known as the "King of Rock and Roll", was born in Mississippi, a predominantly black southern state, and moved to Memphis, Tennessee, Tennessee after the age of 13. These places are the birthplace of several types of black music. The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, etc. all confessed that they were deeply influenced by blues music. Blues guitarist BB King was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1987 with a Lifetime Achievement Award. The industry agrees that R&B rhythm and blues (melody blues) is the father of Rock N' Roll.
In the later period, Simone's style will be more jazz and pop music. Her singing style is still very blues and soul style. The difference is mainly in the soundtrack. In order to cater to the public's taste preferences, the soundtrack is in the form of pop/jazz. You can actually find some blues/soul music, like James Brown's songs, and his soundtracks are pretty jazzy too. The definition of jazz is actually a melting pot, a pot of assorted dishes, and the differences between various sub-categories are sometimes very large, and the times are also very different. For example, the Smooth Jazz played on various radio stations now (imagine Kenny G's saxophone playing), the style definition belongs to Jazz and Pop, which originates from R&B, Rock'N Roll and Funk. When Smooth Jazz first appeared in the 1970s, it was called Fusion (a combination of several styles, mainly Easy-Listening Pop and Lightweight R&B). The name "Smooth Jazz" is exactly what several radio stations in the United States called out there. Originating from soothing pop music and mild R&B, Smooth Jazz has a false name for jazz, and is truly a model of selling dog meat. Fundamental jazz lovers loathe this bogus jazz subgenre.
Regarding the classification of music, listening to songs for many years may not be able to distinguish clearly. In fact, most singers don't care much about their style positioning. Just like Simone, she can sing whatever she likes. In the later stage, experienced and experienced monks/old fairy bones, just like BB King and Louis Armstrong, how to play is justified. Simone played the tune of one song, but sang the lyrics of another song, which made people very amazing. Why it sounds good, the harmony of the sound.
For real music lovers, you can slowly listen to the music recordings of the old era, and move forward ten years and ten years. The earlier the music is, the more real and pure it is, and the more distinctive the singer is. The more modern it is, the more commercial it is, and the more it relies on equipment and equipment. Simone doesn't really fascinate me, but I can recommend "The Andrews Sisters", a girl group that I'm personally obsessed with. They were in the old days, but they were very popular and typical of singing and dancing.
In the 1930s and 1940s, their album sales reached tens of millions
. During World War II, The Andrews Sisters actively raised funds for the US military, such as charity performances and
