One of the greatest.
Love the feverish, hypnotic old blues tunes such as this:
Freddie King - I'm Tore Down (Federal version)
Fleetwood Mac - Jumpin' at Shadows from Live in Boston (Vol 1 Version)
B.B. King - It's My Own Fault from Live at the Regal.
It just hits harder in these really old recordings

Agreed. It's 'feel' above everything else. A self-contained dimension of direct, raw life experience. People copy the notes and timing in a bid to emulate the sound but for me this music is a direct expression of those life experiences of a certain time and culture - without that the core essence is missing. That's not to say I don't enjoy some blues-influenced rock... but it just ain't the same.
Mississippi John Hurt is one of my faves - if I could go back and meet any of the greats it'd be him. He spells it out in the intro to this live version of Jesus On The Mainline...
Totally agree.
