What blues are you listening to today?

Got some classic Otis Rush playing.....

@johnto 

I hardly put on Blues any more, although it used to figure prominently in my listening, but as it happens, I did pull out Indianola Mississippi Seeds night. I’ve always liked that album, despite the over-production. Bottom line: BB’s playing and vocals are great!  

@beernut 

What are some of your favorite Otis Rush recordings? 

@unclewilbur 

I think you're missing the point. Consider this quote from BB King: 

The Blues is a tonic for whatever ails you. I could play the Blues and not be blue anymore.

It's difficult to mention The Blues without including Lightnin' Hopkins and John Lee Hooker. Their recent reissues on the Craft Bluesville label, Blues In My Bottle and That's My Story are outstanding as is the entire series.

Yeah, Lightnin’ - Soul Blues
