Can anybody recommend some great blues music?


I like Albert collins, and b.b. king alot

Go to the roots, Son house, robert johnson, lead belly, lightnin hopkins, and just look for music that these guys inspired, also dont be afraid to go to the blues section at the record store and pick something up you've never heard of. Some of my favorites were found that way, T- model ford, Junior Kimbrough, Corey Harris. Just keep looking, your on the right path.

yea, check out Bobbie Bland, Albert King, Z.Z. Hill, Muddy Waters, you might like.

Depending how you wanna start, try BB King, Albert King, Howling Wolf, Stevie Ray Vaughan, etc

Howlin' Wolf
Muddy Waters
John Lee Hooker
Elmore James

3 words,,,,,john lee hooker,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, as far as a modern day blues band,,,although they are more of a back-porch-soul group,,,,,is a band called MOFRO. they are awesome.

other than collins i like robert cray,hooker,smokin joe kubeck,byther smith,eric clapton,etc.

Howlin Wolf
John Lee Hooker
Muddy Waters

That's all you need.

Aside from all the classics mentioned , I recommend ...
Susan Tedeschi "it hurts so bad" gives me the shivers

Kenny, blues boss, Wayne, Let it Loose. This is a great CD. Buddy Guy - Feels Like Rain is also good. There are some great Blues artists out there. I just can't think of too many right now.

early yardbirds
early zeppelin
claptain
jeff beck
early grateful dead (RIP pigpen)

no one has any love for T-Bone Walker..
and if you can find it check out Bishop Perry Tillis, who i don;t think many people know about but Birdman records released some of his stuff.

For old school I `d say the three kings BB Albert and Freddy

New school Back porch slam and Eric Sardinas
throw some Tab Benoit in for good measure

Check out Joe Satriani and JJ Cale

i think that the below website will help you to find the right solution.you can get all music hear..

you need to listen to Muddy Waters, especially my all time favorite drink when your depressed on friday and can be sober my Monday morning song " still a fool".

Try Stevie Ray Vaughn and Eric Clapton,Buddy Guy

bobby blue bland, howlin wolf,bobby rush, tyrone davis, albert king.

Albert Cummings
Stevie Ray Vaughn
Bonnie Raitt
Kenny Wayne Shepard
Northern Mississippi All Stars
James Cotton Blues Band
Son House
Check out Jimi Hendrixs' "Red House"

Stevie Ray Vaughn vs steve vai guitar duel in the film crossroads its well ace kk.

Everyone above has great suggestions but one I did not see was Rory Gallagher.
