Plot
Brain tells George about the blues. After lending him CD's and showing him a song he wrote George becomes inspired to write his own blues song. After writing one he performs it to Koko Taylor, a blues legend, his courage is lost when he can't sing loud enough for anyone to hear. He goes home and listens to a CD by Taj Mahal, while listening, he dreams up more courage to perform for Koko Taylor once again. During his second attempt his guitar string snaps. As he loses courage again, Taj Mahal arrives and helps him to get over his snapped guitar string and George finally performs his song for Coco.
