Glad to see you investigating the Blues Tim. Try Natch'l Blues by Taj Mahal - it's in my desert Island all time top 20

Excellent album!

Would you recommend specific albums from those others or compilations?

Hard Again - it's thanks enough that you've enjoyed it as much as I do. John Lee Hooker and Howling Wolf are two more bluesmen I love to hear, Taj Mahal is more blues rock but he has a great voice.

Looking at your list I'd add The Who (Who's Next, or Live At Leeds - my favourite live album), Deep Purple (Machine Head or In Rock), Rush (2112 for the music, not the politics), and Jimi Hendrix (Electric Ladyland), David Bowie (Ziggy Stardust). AC/DC - Back in Black. Rolling Stones - Beggars Banquet. Cream - Disraeli Gears.

It's Blues but please buy a B.B. King compilation and buy Hard Again by Muddy Waters.

There have been many suggestions in this thread but I'm slowly making my way through samples to decide whether to buy or not. In relation to Muddy Waters' Hard Again, FANTASTIC! That is the sort of blues I've been trying to find. One of many added to my Amazon shopping list. Cheers Jon.

I'm just sampling some Yardbirds albums from YouTube... At what point in his career (solo or in bands) did EC start singing? As much as I love the guitar, I love hearing HIM sing the blues.
