Jazz is the best!!! And so is the Blues! However I am finding trouble composing a 12-bar blues and a jazz piece which must be ready for March! If anyone can help me, that would be much appreciated!!!

Almost all blues is 12 bars. Just stay away from ragtime and the likes and you should be ok. Anyway for a basic song I guess you could do Dust my broom by Elmore James. What are you playing? What for?
