There's so many I could post here, and probably will, but this song by ZZ Top was on the brain.

Blind Willie Johnson, Robert Johnson (I assume he's already in your collection however), Son House, Charlie Patton, Blind Lemon Jefferson, Mississippi John Hurt... to name a few of the greats....

I visited some of their graves, sat on their rocking chairs... I go to clarksdale when I need to feel reconnected... honeyboy edwards stole a kiss from my wife, he's in his 90's and played with Robert Johnson... taught Muddy waters... saw him again in LA, he said he remembered us, invited us backstage... did some shots and he told some stories, and he kissed my wife again...

I would have you tubed some of the other greats but it was getting late. I'll add some more before the weekend is over.

It's hard to find good current blues. Joe Bonamassa, Kenny Wayne Shepherd and Chris Duarte frequent my iPod alot.

I've always digged the blues also.

Right now I'm on a Andrei Krylov/Classical guitar binge though.
