I have quite a few blues artists in my collection, many of which have already been mentioned. My favourite blues-album at the moment is Indianola Mississippi Seeds by B.B. King (1970). Warmly recommended!

Recently, I was told that Gary Moore had some decent blues albums and while I have some of it, I don't know it so well (I know him mostly from Thin Lizzy and his more metal solo stuff). Anyone else who can recommend him for his blues albums?

Check out The Thrill is Gone by B.B King.

Etta James - At Last!

Keb' Mo - Keb' Mo

Albert King - Born Under a Bad Sign

I really enjoy T-Bone Walker. B.B. King is another fabulous choice.
