Looking for Blues with High Fidelity


I recently listened to Eric Clapton’s “Me and Mr. Johnson” and really appreciated the guitar playing and the quality of the recording.  What are some of your favorite Blues recordings?

Joe Bonamosa - An Acoustic Evening at the Vienna Opera House

David Johansen and the Harry Smiths

Mississippi Fred McDowel - I Do Not Sing No Rock and Roll

Otis Spann - Good Morning Mr Blues

Joe Bonemassa-=Live at Royal Albert Hall

Stevie Ray Vaughn=the sky is crying 

Johny Lang= Lie to me

Gary Moore  and Albert Collins=Live 

 

Stevie Ray Vaughn - album "Couldn't Stand The Weather", and especially the cut, "Tin Pan Alley" is impressive. 

 

Agree with the previously mentioned Ronnie Earl. Albums "Beyond the Blue Door" and "The Luckiest Man" are very well recorded and produced. Great stuff! 

Junior Wells - Hoodoo Man Blues on Delmark is a very good sounding Blues lp. It also kills musically.

 

John Lee Hooker, notable albums:

-The Healer - excellent album. 

-Chill Out

-Mr Lucky

-Don't Look Back
