Jazz/blues guitarist suggestions for SRV fan.

Went out and got Ronnie Earl's latest all instrumental album, forgot the name. He is certainly talented and I love the album. I am going to pick up some more of his albums since I like his style.

Got a Kenny Wayne Shepard disc too, again forgot the name. I'm here at work and can't recall the albums. Kenny Wayne is good and has the Stevie Ray sound...but...it's just not the same.

Keep the suggestions coming guys, this is a great thread. I'll probably ending up looking into most of the artists mentioned here. I've been on a Jazz/Blues guitarist search and this is a great reference list.

i just came home with my new stash of blues cd's ,thanks to eveyone on audiogon for such great music. melvin taylor's dirty pool is outstanding! back to the blues & thanks again.

SRV fan, I will say it again "ARC ANGELS". This is with SRV rhythm section of Tommy Shannon and Chris Layton, better known as Double Trouble. With Doyle Bramhall II and Charlie Sexton on guitars and vocals, produced by Little Steven, this could be close to what you are looking for. Go to Amazon or WinMX for more info.

I would say me, but I don't have a contract yet. I can send you some demo stuff though . . .

Ronnie Earl "the colour of love" is one of the newest on Verve 1997.
