Jazz/blues guitarist suggestions for SRV fan.


I am about to wear out my Stevie Ray Vaughan CDs. I have been looking for a similar sound for a while and keep coming up short. What I am looking for is the instrumental jazz/blues sound, like in Riviera Paradise which is one of my all time favorite songs. I've tried Joe Satriani, Eric Johnson, Eric Wallo, Clapton even Ry Cooder...all good but they don't keep me coming back. Keb Mo is not too bad, he just does not do the instrumentals like Stevie.

Any suggestions for mostly instrumental jazz/blues guitarist?
