Each year in September, blues lovers descend on San Francisco for a
joyful, spirited party in honor of a kind of music that is derived from
a sorrowful place. The blues, that wonderful, heartfelt, uniquely
American genre of music, has a home in this city and is welcomed with
open arms during the annual San Francisco Blues Festival.
