[Orsorum]

Just curious if anyone knows any good blues singers... I'm listening to Shemekia Copeland right now. Any suggestions?

Blues for Dummies Geez they have these books for everything now. I would try Muddy Waters to start with though. Sotra the original blues man.

Don't forget Stevie Ray Vaughn and Clapton is an accomplished bluesman as well.

What kinda blues? I'm more into rock'n blues as opposed to the more traditional blues.

Tinsley Ellis
James Thackery
(Monster)Mike Welsh-saw him when he was 15yr. old, even better than Lang
Buddy Guy
Johnny Winter
SRV
Eric Sardinas
Five Horse Johnson-kinda metal blues
Hound dog Taylor-old fart on a $25 guitar from the 60's
John Mayall
Anthony Gomes
Kenny Wayne Sheppard
Preacher-another metal blues,mostly instrumentals


BTW-I just went to a great blues club that just opened in Detroit last week, PM me if any are interested.
