thanks but don't want beginner albums as I have heard and possess most of them

I am looking for modern blues albums (10-15 years old) that people have heard and to give their recommendation

thanks for the recommendation RC88, I will grab a copy of that album this weekend :cool:

the woodstock album- muddy waters

Listening to a couple of Freddie Robinson albums at the moment.

'At the Drive In' (1972) A mostly instrumental, up-tempo, just nearly into funk one.

'Off the Cuff' (1973) Slower, more soulful and bluesy.

no prob, personally i recomend anything with davy knowles playing guitar on, one of the best players i've heard in years

also give this guy a listen as well
philip sayce - Innerevolution

A rather predictable choice I'd imagine but "The Ballad Of John Henry" by Joe Bonamassa is absolutely ace.

WilcoOut

West Side Soul - Magic Sam

Jesus what an album

If you like Magic Sam check out Jody Williams, Bobby Radcliff, Otis Rush and Buddy Guy's early recordings.

Give a listen to Joanne Shaw Taylor and Gordon Smith:cool:

Grid.

From the Cradle by Eric Clapton is excellent;)
