Coming at the end of a decade that had seen the appropriation of blues songs and forms in the folk revival, British Invasion, and blues-rock, AABF69 introduced a new generation and audience to the living African-American culture behind the music. Arguably the first blues festival to feature acoustic and electric artists representing various stylistic, geographic, and historical roots, AABF69 provided a forum for the musicians to re-connect with old friends and meet new ones.
