Metal needs to honor its roots and respect its elders... The Blues! Plus, the names are so much more interesting:
Blind Lemon Jefferson
Huddie 'Lead Belly' Ledbetter
Clarence 'Gatemouth' Brown
Lightnin' Hopkins
Memphis Minnie
Sister Rosetta Tharpe
T-Bone Walker
Muddy Waters
Next we have the "Kings" of the Blues:
Freddie King
Albert King
BB King
Then the modern blues masters:
Stevie Ray Vaughan
Eric Clapton
Robert Johnson
Jimi Hendrix
Rory Gallagher
Peter Green
Buddy Guy
Gary Moore
Jack White
Joe Bonamassa
Johnny Winter
Duane Allman
Hard to argue with the long list of pioneers and carriers of the torch. Case closed!
