Your favorite blues album?


I would like to know what you think to be your favorite blues album. I have several compilations, some Big Joe Turner, and several Chicago local blues artists, but am looking for more. Please include why you like the album. I'm trying to expand my "Blues" horizons, and I know I have come to the right place. I look forward to your comments.

I 'll add several of my LP favorites (great music and good sonics).

1. Mississippi Fred McDowell: I don't play no rock and roll
2. Lightning Hopkins: Live at Berkley
3. John Lee Hooker: The Healer
4. Roy Buchanan (please, try Hey Joe, on That's What I'm Here For or Five String Blues on Second Album)
5. Butterfield Blues Band: East-West
(I don't believe the white men can play blues, but I have a soft spot for Paul Butterfield and Roy Buchanan).
6. No young blues players can touch my heart as much as Guy Davis, but I doubt his music is available on vinyl.

Best regards.
