Detroit a Music Haven!

[ThisIsForTheHeart]

I don't think country is very strong in Detroit. I don't know of any country bars or even underground scene. I don't listen to country and neither jazz but I know jazz bars and underground jazz . But you are right jazz, funk, rap, rock n roll and electronic music is pouplar.

Ref. your comment/question about Detroit influence on World Music, Yusef Lateef is a pioneering influence on WM. Interestingly, he was working at a Chrysler plant around 1955 when he met a fellow from Syria, who talked of different flutes and piqued Yusef's interest...and Yusef turned his musical intellect toward that area and created some fabulous sounds, well documented on Prestige, Savoy and other labels.
