Plenty of BLUES lovers here I am sure, but no subject that I can see.
So share your favorites and ENJOY!


Here is Mike Finnegan's amazing vocal and keyboard work, and Jerry Woods fine guitar work on what is widely considered the very BEST cover of Son House's DEATH LETTER...
Absolutely brilliant!

From their never reissued vinyl (but it is available on Mike Finnegan's home page as a download)--Crazed Hipsters. Check out everything Mike has been tapped for as a session guy...Electric Ladyland, notably, and hundreds of others.

I've been a long-time Tom Waits fan - the first I ever knew of him was when I saw him performing Tom Traubert's Blues on the much missed Old Grey Whistle Test on BBC TV, and I was hooked. A few years later, in 1987, I saw him live in London at the Hammersmith Appollo. I do prefer his earlier stuff - thought he went a bit odd after Swordwfish Trombones but came back to form later with Alice, etc. As part of his 2008 Glitter and Doom tour he did two nights in Edinburgh but I couldn't get tickets - even at 95 pounds each 6000 sold out in less than 15 minutes .

I don't know what to call it...Tom Waits' music, but that'll do....smokey barroom blues.

Here is a funny bit when Tom appeared on Fernwood Tonight with Martin Mull in 1977....

"The Piano Has Been Drinking"...don't think they really knew what to make of Tom!

curiously, Peter Green thought "Man of the world" despite it being in a major key (Dmajor)

Go figure!

I suppose it was Jahn Mayall that really got me into blues with his legendary "John Mayall and the Bluesreakers with Eric Clapton" album of 1966 - for example

I first saw the Bluesbreakers in either late '66 or early '67 by which time, of course, Clapton had left them, having been replaced by the great Peter Green. I subsequently saw then again on several occasions with Mick Taylor on lead guitar.
I remember back 1967 me and three friends buying a copy of the "Beano" and trying to recreate the iconic "John Mayall and the Bluesreakers with Eric Clapton" LP front cover by sitting on the steps of a noted statue in the town's main square looking (as we thought) very cool indeed. We hastily removed ourselves not because of the forces of law and order, who weren't interested in any event, but when a group of girls who we rather fancied came across us and were scathing in their comments. The joys of youth....

Love Mayall....my first real intro to him was with "Movin' On"....so innovative and no percussion! great stuff for sure!

All my friends had the SHHHH album and it was the bluesiest thing we had heard from any "rock" band over here. And you would likey say they were moving away from the pure stuff by then.

Alvin Lee - "The Bluest Blues". Stunning guitar work. Takes me right back to the late 60's when Ten Years After were one of the many bands playing British blues on the university circuit.

"because you're sweet and lovely
I love you ... "

why not just call it For You Patti? I don't think she'd gone off with Eric at that point

I suppose that, on reflection, the Stones were more rhythm and blues rather than full blown blues and so here is the classic and original Fleetwood Mac with Love That Burns:

The Rolling Stones - Muddy Waters' I Can't Be Satisfied. Off Rolling Stones 2. For some reason though, this superb interpretation did not make it on to any of their American(London) albums......except the later More Hot Rocks compilation.
