I concentrated more on electric artists; if I made a list of country blues/acoustic folk blues, it would have the usual suspects (Skip James, Robert Johnson, Big Bill Broonzy, Sonny Boy Williamson, et.al.)

oh, and there are links in theis section to d/l free live shows by Driving Wheel and Steepwater Band in the corresponding threads.
