Some blues suggestions

Thanks for the quick responses and suggestions, my notebook is right next to me as I read the list. I shall head out tonight and try some on for size.

Try Kelly Joe Phelps

Just an awesome LP on vinyl or if you must on CD. its I am the Blues by Willie Dixon. just cant beet him he wrote for muddy waters and BB King
But his LP I am the Blues is all Great !!!

Try Richard Johnson's "Foot Hill Stomp"

R L Burnside - Wish I Was In Heaven Sitting Down. Awesome bluesy album with the saddest stories I've ever heard.
"Amazon.com's Best of 2000
R.L. Burnside's background is pure Mississippi Delta--he was raised in the hill country and musically trained by quintessential bluesmen like Fred McDowell. But this record, like all his work, is infused with an adventurous spirit, haunted by eerie bits of electronic music and dark, despondent subject matter. The combination sounds irresistibly fresh, and scary as a hellhound on your trail. --Matthew Cooke"
