Can you recommend a good blues tune (with links, please)?

Asked by marinelife (62485points) October 24th, 2010

I am in the mood for the blues tonight. I was just listening to Willie Dixon’s Bassology and Howlin’ Wolf (with Willie Dixon on bass) doing Spoonful.

I’d love to hear some more great blues tunes.

Got any suggestions for me?

Allman Brothers
Popular in the late 60s and early 70s.
My dad played this song constantly on the “record player”
I learned to play the guitar listening to it.

One of my Mom’s very favorites in a funky rendition: Blues in the Night

@josie Thanks, I wasn’t even thinking of the Allman Brothers, and they are favorites of mine.

Tom Waits’ Blue Valentine album is full of great blues-ish tracks. Here’s one of my favorites.

I always like this one.

It’s “The Thrill Is Gone” by BB King and Tracy Chapman.
