Check out either of Melvin Taylor's releases on Evidence Records, Melvin Taylor & the Slack Band (straight power trio) or his most recent, "Bang that Bell". Possibly the best guitarist around today, with unbelievable technique but not just for the sake of playing fast (he plays great slowly as well). Very diverse in terms of style, combining blues, jazz, r & b, and hard rock. Really interesting and considered by many to be the best guitarist in Chicago today.
Best Blues Rock recommendations?
I just started listening to Blues Rock and have been bowled over by recents CDs I bought like Robert Lucas, Kenny Wayne Shepard, Buddy Guy, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Led Zep, Jeff Beck etc. I intend to increase my collection and am keen on soem worthwhile recommendations. What are some of the Blues Rocks albums you've heard, especially the newer releases over the last few years?
