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)

Here are a couple URLs to check out too. All Music http://www.allmusic.com/explore/genre/blues-d41 Musicovery: I liked their old format better, but type in Johnny Winter and wander off from there. http://musicovery.com/index.php?ct=us |
If you want to explore Johnny Winter try his Reprise album The Progressive Blues Experiment and his debut on Columbia,also Second Winter and Live. After Johnny cleaned up his smack habit he came out firing to re- establish himself on three albums on Aligator records that are blistering fret displays. Another Guiter player that influenced both SRV and Billy Gibbons was a Cincy guitar slinger Lonnie Mack who's live album is worth checking out. If you want a band that came out of Texas on the heels of ZZ Top's rise in popularity check out Point Blank. |
