Jazz/blues guitarist suggestions for SRV fan.

I am about to wear out my Stevie Ray Vaughan CDs. I have been looking for a similar sound for a while and keep coming up short. What I am looking for is the instrumental jazz/blues sound, like in Riviera Paradise which is one of my all time favorite songs. I've tried Joe Satriani, Eric Johnson, Eric Wallo, Clapton even Ry Cooder...all good but they don't keep me coming back. Keb Mo is not too bad, he just does not do the instrumentals like Stevie.

Any suggestions for mostly instrumental jazz/blues guitarist?

Im not sure if "Corby Yates" has been mentioned yet but
he sounds pretty good. I heard some of his stuff at Guitar center yesterday. Worth a listen... He's in his early twenties and sounds like he's well on his way.

Piezo... I think you hit it right on the head. SRV did
get most of his stuff from Albert King. Also i did
see Indiginous and the guitar player does sound quite a
bit like Stevie.. I was impressed... His sister wails on
the drums too. Pretty cool stuff. I also agree with you
on Kenny Wayne.. he's alright but just doesnt do it for me.

I just quickly scaned over artist listed on this thread... There's some great ones. The only i can think of that i dont remember seeing is Buddy Guy.
