What blues are you listening to today?

Blues is by far my favorite and most listened to genre. I don't know how many of us are in here, but I thought a continuing thread of this kind might be of interest. 

I'm listening to Buddy Guy's Sweet Tea. Buddy's covers of Junior Kimbrough,      T-Model Ford, CeDell Davis and the like are awesome. Jimbo Mathus sitting in on rhythm guitar doesn't hurt! 

So what blues are on your system today?

OP - Thanks for the post.  I've picked up some artists that are new to me and was reminded of some I'd not listened to in ages.  +1 for Howlin Wolf.  My suggestion is Hans Theesink.  And excellent bluesman - from Holland!  He's the real deal.  Enjoy.

Great thread.

I’ve been going to this obscure little 1990 film soundtrack that features Miles Davis and John Lee Hooker along with Taj Mahal on and off for about 3 years now.  I thought this would be a good opportunity to share a pretty good Blues album along with some late model Miles for some like-minded folks who might also find it to be good listening.
