Ive just realised that mostly evryone here listens to heavy metal XD Even the romulaiotn radio is friken metal....lol... Anybody listen to blues,folk blues,pre-war blues,post-war blues or just me. B.B King T Bone Walker Robert Johnson Son House Lightin Hopkins Buddy Guy Elmore James John Lee Hooker Earl Hooker Muddy Waters Howlin Wolf Lonnie Johnson Blind Lemon Johnson Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac Matt Guitar Murphey And a few more.... Any Blues Fans?
Sorry..not a blue's fan. I guess why most of us like metal is because...well while this statement might not be true to all of us, but...we are geeks, geeks mostly listen to metal/game/anime music. I also listen to hard core techno and have respect for all forms of music, but I always come back to metal, sorry dude, just out of boredom I;d give my 2 cents...and if your lucky maybe someone else will post after me XD
Arrhhh no worries lol Im only 21,but i was brought up on elvis and chuck berry and all sorts of blues.... I will find someone lol
I hope so, I seen 1 or 2 but forgot who they were.... I'm 22 btw, and I was brought up with Abba...funny how things change isn't it? From Mama mia to Korn's freak on a leash XD
Stevie Ray Vaughan. After a lifetime of listening to (and playing on guitar) punk and metal I bought a Stevie Ray album and my brain melted. This is what I had been missing. Stevie opened the door to a whole world of music I was aware of but not familiar with....blues. My blues odyssey then began in earnest: Hendrix....Buddy Guy....BB King.....etc.... My love affair with my guitar was reignited, my mojo was reasserted and my life was made.....better. Good call MitsukaiXxX.
grf.....thank you very much I like SRV,i loved his texas flood album,if you listen to jimi hendrix's Blues Album,you see where SRV got his influence from. I nearly got to see BB King ,but he sold out .... Glad to see that Blues had such a posative impact on your life....just like it did with mine....
You didnt mention Stevie Ray Vaughn!? Hes the Blues GOD! Texas Flood is still my all time fave blues piece
Im not a huge fan.....As he was a late Blues Guitarist....and his career isn't 100% Blues,so he not really classed as a Blues Guitarist,Just like Clapton and hendrix..... IMO B.B King,Tbone Walker and Robert Johnson are the Blues GODS.....I prefer older blues,then contempory texas shuffles LOL......
I think one of the best is 'Boom Boom' by John Lee Hooker. The guitar part is kinda cool. And 'Three O'Clock Blues' By BB King.
