About Modern Electric Blues
According to Cub Coda of the All Music Guide, "Modern Electric Blues
is an eclectic mixture, a
sub genre embracing both the old, the new and something that falls
between the two. Some forms of it xeroxes the older styles of urban
blues-primarily offshoots of the electric Chicago band style-right
down to playing the music itself on vintage instruments and amplifiers
from the period being replicated. It also a genre that pays homage to
those vintage styles of playing while simultaneously recasting them in
contemporary fashion. It can also be-by turns-the most forward looking
of all blues styles, embracing rock beats and enlivening the form with
funk rhythms and chord progressions that expand beyond the standard
three that usually comprises most blues forms."~ All Music Gude

of making a standard cocktail. The natural cocktails, which contain no
artificial preservatives, color additives, are easy to serve,
consistently high quality and with an alcohol content of 13.9% there
