Hi.
The only blues I know is Eric Clapton, SRV, and B.B King.  Could you please recommend any blues band or musician that is NOT Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray, or King?
Thanks! 
PS: Searched

| | | | There are some great contemporary Blues men on the scene, like Robert Cray, Keb Mo, and Kenny Neal. But be sure you listen to the legends that inspired them. Like Muddy Waters, Howlin Wolf, BB King, Albert King, Albert Collins, Hound Dog Taylor, and Lightnin Hopkins. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Nov 2006 Location: Ireland | | If you know Clapton, then you might already know Johh Mayall(worth checking out if you dont). Other names/bands I'd recommend would be :
Paul Butterfield, Taj Mahal, Johnny Winter, Freddy King, Ten Years After, Peter Green, Roomful of Blues, and Alexis Korner.
Happy listening !!
