Bar Blues

Famous quotes containing the words bar and/or blues:

    Hemingway is terribly limited. His technique is good for short stories, for people who meet once in a bar very late at night, but do not enter into relations. But not for the novel.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)

    It is from the blues that all that may be called American music derives its most distinctive character.
