I think SRV's version of Texas Flood is the best blues song ever

Every time I listen to this song it's like I'm hearing it for the first time... I'm always picking up on new things in it. Also, live versions kick ASS.

What do you think is the best blues song ever?

    Two Trains Running by Muddy Waters

    One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer and Crawlin King Snake by John Lee Hooker

    Hellhound On My Trail by Robert Johnson

    Damn Right I've Got the Blues by Buddy Guy

    Lightnin' Hopkins I really like too. That deep south old blues sound is awesome.

    Probably Stop Breaking Down by Robert Johnson. The Stripes also do a good cover or two.

    Texas Flood is up there near the top for me as well.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.
