Disliking the blues implies that you also dislike rock and roll as blues is the father of rock. A lot of the early rock pioneers copied blues songs, Elvis, Eric Clapton, Rolling Stones, Beatles, Led Zeppelin, etc. so what kind of music do you like?
The reason blues are used as an example is a lot of guitar techniques come from blues players and songs; pull offs, hammer ons, fingerpicking, bends, slides, etc. TAC is using these songs and players to demonstrate and teach these basic techniques. It is less about the song and more about the techniques.
That being said typically, only one week a month might have a traditional blues song or artist. The other weeks will have songs inspired by blues such as BB King, Eric Clapton, etc..
