Willie Dixon's life and work was virtually an embodiment of the progress of the blues, from an accidental creation of the descendants of freed slaves to a recognized and vital part of America's musical heritage. That Dixon was one of the first professional blues songwriters to benefit in a serious, material way, and that he had to fight to do it, from his work also made him an important symbol of the injustice that still informs the music industry, even at the end of the 20th century.
