Recommend some Blues music to a newbie

Muddy Waters Folk Singer 45RPM by Quality Pressings.

Ether, for a different take on the blues try Otis Taylor. He calls his music trance blues and his main instrument is the banjo. I too like Eric Bibb-I only have one of his CD's called "Troubador Live" which has Staffan Astner as a guest guitarist. I play it for guests and they always like it.

Mississippi John Hurt or Sonny Terry/Brownie McGhee would be a great listen for one who enjoyed Eric Bibb.By all means get some samplers Vanguard Records have good notes which should help you.The problem with asking for recommendations here is that people just tout their favorites and don't consider where you entered this journey (Eric Bibb).Go to the public library and see if they have any blues comps on CD.Or buy used.

For acoustic...lightning Hopkins...good as it gets
