Rediscovering my love for The Blues...OH MY

I flipped on my XM radio (in my jeep) and Joe Bonamassa's "The River" was playing. My jaw dropped....I was blown away! I've been listening to him, SRV, The three Kings, and some John Mayer. There are a few local guys, too. Any good recommendations on stuff? I love the style of "The River"...holy cow. So heavy, powerful, and that slide guitar...golly! I can't get enough of it. Turned up the song, on my way back from a call, and was just rocking out!

    This one came up on a mix CD I made about 10 years ago.

    Please, Pearl Jam, consider a Benaroya Hall vinyl reissue!

    If you really want to hear good blues, check out Buddy Miles: A Man and His Blues

    Quintessential Chicago Blues style born out of the delta blues.

    A few typos there, friend? Did you mean Buddy Guy, "A man and the Blues"? I've had that record since it came out- first rate stuff, for sure!

    Ha! For sure...Buddy Guy! I don't even think that can be blamed on auto-correct. Maybe I had Band of Gypsies on the brain. Not even typos, just dumbass errors! Thanks for noting to get the OP on the right track.

    At any rate, great record. I've had it forever, as well. Even the pops and hisses of an old record give it character.
