Thanks for releasing this information to us. I enjoy your blog. I'm sorry to say this, and it's not meant as a personal attack at all, but that list is pretty damned sad. Where are Alvin Youngblood Hart, Corey Harris, Rory Block, Samuel James and John Hammond Jr.? Robert Randolph is great; I agree with that. Bobby Rush is awful, and if Kenny Wayne is a Bluesman, then I'm Blind Lemon Jefferson.
Thanks for reading my blog...much appreciated. I was surprised about Rory Block too. What a great blues singer and instrumentalist!
