Your favorite blues album?

I would like to know what you think to be your favorite blues album. I have several compilations, some Big Joe Turner, and several Chicago local blues artists, but am looking for more. Please include why you like the album. I'm trying to expand my "Blues" horizons, and I know I have come to the right place. I look forward to your comments.

I have always enjoyed "Hoodoo Man Blues" by Junior Wells.

One can never have one favorite(cd, wine, car, etc). I haven't seen it mentioned but check out John Campbell's One Believer.

a favorite blues album? can't say i can pick just one, but i've been listening to the bluesbreakers w/ clapton and mayall quite a bit lately. i just got it on cd and have had it on vinyl for years. don't have a tt right now, but the cd reissue ain't bad. worth checking out imo.

If you can only have one Muddy Waters album in your collection, make it Muddy Waters Sings Bill Broonzy. Whatever an original Chess costs, it's worth it.
Also, does anyone besides me wish Steve Ray had made an acoustic album? An opportunity tragically missed I'm sure.
