Love me some blues. :)

Some guys did something nice with this song:

Apparently Jack White's favorite song:

[yt]QA8-ZOuKetU[/yt]

Also, my absolutely favorite film about blues:

Ironically, the guy who actually lives in the delta, like Chicago styled blues better.

^Very nice piece, that. I am not typically much of a blues fan, but such a tune is quite palatable :D

Two of my all-time favorites, BB King and Ray Charles, together. I never knew about this.

This just popped into my head, yesterday. It was one of my favorites from the 60's. More soul than blues, but it's related to blues:

A cross between Blues and Zydeco. Very good, IMHO.

^ excellent Skip James track, there's nothing like this anymore. A time when righteous gentlemen sang "gotta shoot my woman, coz she's foolin' around with too many men". That's how the time around the Great Depression produced some music gold, though life was something to worry about ;)

Yes... well... ok. The '40s were interesting.
