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?

Warren Hanynes and Government Mule and the Derek Truks Band. I am very surprised that no one has recommended Warren Haynes, and Government Mule. Warren Haynes is behind some of the greatest slide and blues riffs that the Allman Brothers band has ever put out. Warren Haynes also put out a solo album, several years ago, called "Tales of Ordinary Madness", but it might be hard to find. He is supposed to be coming out with another solo album.
And if you like that, you will probably enjoy the Derek Truks band. He is a lot like Johnny Lang.
Enjoy the search.

Sorry there Funjindemon. I was reading this thread late last night, and I guess that I missed your choice of "Dose". I also agree with your choice of Jimi Hendrix "Blues".
Have you listened to two of the latest Government Mule cds?
"Life before Insanity", with Allen Woody, and "In the Deep End", that came out after Allen Woody died. They are two really great cds.
