How bout a blues thread, youtube and whatnot so that I have some stuff to listen to. I'll start with some Junior Kimbrough [youtube]8MhPxRbgXkY[/youtube]

The Wolf Shake It for Me [youtube]ux6N00CwudA&feature=related[/youtube] I posted this next clip in the video thread maybe a year ago: How Many More Years, on Shindig! introduced by Brian Jones and Mick Jagger. When he wags his finger at the audience (around the 2:45 mark) I just get the feeling that someone's about to get their ass whooped. [youtube]sn4Nv0P93II&feature=related[/youtube]
More of the Wolf. May I have A Talk With You [youtube]O0CZlYuvaaY[/youtube] A blues gem. Smokestack Lightning [youtube]_LNt5J0Cesc[/youtube]
[youtube]yKo0FK6-O-E[/youtube] Buddy Guy w/Carlos Santana at the Montreaux Jazz Festival (smokin', it'll set of your smoke alarm)
Henry Thomas - Bulldoze Blues. Alan Wilson claiming credit for writing 'Going Up the Country' seems pretty shameful after listening to this song. [youtube]3Qo9R5kDZWY[/youtube]
Lightning Hopkins Lonesome Road [youtube]NVF-0JKLnd4&NR[/youtube] MoJo Hand [youtube]RNDJF4azgog[/youtube]
