What was your first Blues album? (country, jazz, rock, cd)

My first album was Miles Davis' Kind of Blue. Probably the best Blues album of all time. I still listen to it now after all the other albums I've purchased over the years and I still think nothing else can compare. He just had the best people in Blues on that album and it shows.

I'm not sure if this exactly counts but the first one I got was Stevie Ray Vaughan.. well actually it was Hendrix too but he does a whole variety

if that doesn't count, then i'd have to go with the cd that came with my guitar lesson book. it had a lot of blues.

It was a cassette by Peter Green's fleetwood mac called Looking back on fleetwood mac,that was swiftly followed by a double album by Canned heat and John Lee Hooker.

My first jazz album was Miles Davis-Round Midnight. My first blues album was Stevie Ray Vaughan- The Sky is Crying. Both albums rock!

mine would probably be the one my dad gave me a few months ago after seeing them play. It's a little more rockish than other blues bands but its still concidered blues. The album is called Good Day For Dying and its from Beau Kavanagh And The Broken Hearted. I'm not so much into blues but they are pretty good.

My dad gave me "Kind of Blue" when i was like 7,and i really got into it. one of the greatest albums all the way through

It was a tape with John Lee Hooker on one side, and Muddy Waters on the other. And i played that tape untill it disintegrated. Then I started listeinging to Taj Mahal and the like and I was hooked.
