Howdy, fellow blues'r.. And a purist no less? "..with no R&B hints at all !"
I see yer from the Lone Star state, so what's yer take on SRV ? The dude was something of a mixer.. Texas style roadhouse bluses, heavily influenced by yet another King (Albert), and a lover (and player) of jazz.. Hard combo not to like, but he had his moments..
As for me, I luv him.. I also dig good accoustic slide players, real harp players, and singers that can make you feel the heat..
When I'm left praying for rain, I know I've been listing to some good work..
