Albert, "Blues Boy" King, was da man. He was Stevie Ray Vaughn's idol. When you hear Stevie, you also hear Albert. I saw him live many times, when he played the "juke joints"; the kind where they didn't serve no fancy drinks, "Do you wont whisky wine or beer"?
Need Blues Rec--burn the house down guitar stuff
Help Please!
I've Seen several blues artists live that were just amazing...topping that list is Buddy Guy back in the 80's. But, like others, his CDs never seemed to translate that raw club energy/presence I witnessed live. Blues has always been something I enjoy in person...but never really energizes me when I listen at home. I suspect It's out there and I am missing some great artists/performances. I would like some recommendations for:
Some blistering guitar driven/energetic/possibly live stuff--I don't want the slow stuff (I have that). (I guess when I think about it...it's more rock than blues I'm looking for)
