Esau. Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Pre-war blues = blues songs recorded prior to WWII. Sorry, I didn't think I'd have to verify what "pre-war blues" was to be honest, but I see people have figured it out anyway. I guess I should open this thread a bit more often. Glad this one is moving along, it's not really a hard one, like StoneMtn's... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
