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)

I absolutely second the Danny Gatton recommendations - best guitarist I have ever seen, by far.

Secondly, if you'd like to hear a VERY well-recorded blues album, pick up Junior Wells' "Come On In This House". Absolutely 1st rate recording and mastering quality thanks to Bob Ludwig. This is a reference-quality recording. Available in several formats, even the DTS-CD sounds superb.
