I'm really liking Gary Clark Jr. at the moment. Check out some of his stuff as he is great at the blues as well

I'm a sucker for some Lightnin' Hopkins, or Buddy Guy for a more wailing electric blues vibe. If you fancy some contemporary blues, you can't go wrong with Joanne Shaw-Taylor. She's got a bostin set of pipes, and she can't half noodle. On a similarly contemporary (and also female vocal) note, if psychedelic blues- rock floats your auditory boat, you seriously need Blues Pills in your life. And if Blues Pills aren't trippy enough for you, seek out a little bit of Deep Swell.

Joe Bonamassa first supported BB King when he was 12 years old, can you believe that.Saw him in Leeds last year. When I first got into him, Beth Hart was rhe best female singer I had never heard of.

It's hard to know where to start.

If you're looking for blues, get a few best of albums, find what you like and explore from there.

I recommend Muddy Waters. Check out the track " Wee Manish Boy"

John Lee Hooker is a must too.

If it's more blues/soul, an easy in and good way to explore is, get any blues brothers album, give it a listen, then track down the original artist of each song.

I found Booker T & The MG's that way. " Green Onions " is a classic! And they were the blues brothers backing band pretty much.

Aretha, cab Galloway, so many great artists to find that way.

If you're stuck for new things, try going on a funk odysey. Start with " Parliament" then "PFunk" and take it from there.

Or just Google Funk and start tracking down the bands.

As a total wild card, I'm going to throw in a track that doesn't fit any of that but, is a total must listen.

Try Glenn Millers " Song of the Volga Boatmen"

'Ride On' by AC/DC - Yes the kings of rock actually toned things down a touch on their 1976 album Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap and came up with this little blues number. Shame they did not do a few more in this style although 'Crabsody in Blue' came close.

I totally forgot the girls!

Start with Billie Holiday and Nina Simone. Just by themselves, they are a cannon of the best of the blues.

Hope this helps.

"Anyone got recommendations of artists/tracks they like?

Or Motown songs

Need new music to listen to."

Slightly off-kilter,but very much in a blues universe,I recommend you have a listen to Tinariwen,from saharan Mali.

Pigtown Blues. Never released as a physical recording, but one of my absolute favourite Clutch tracks.

Or if you prefer your blues more traditional, this splendid version of a Cousin Joe classic has some excellent piano and beautiful walkin' blues guitar riffs.

If you like Blues music with a Fab flavour try searching for an album on Spotify called "Copulatin' Blues". It contains some very old classics from the likes of Bessie Smith (Do Your Duty/Take Me For A Buggy Ride), Sophie Tucker (He Hadn't Up Till Yesterday) & more old recordings which are wonderful to blast out on a sunny Sunday to horrify the neighbours. Well worth a listen if you like to hear dirty blues music.

Interesting, I thought about Bessie Smith/Buggy Ride but classed it as jazz...

Love blues, I've been brought up on it and know loads of players through my work.

Check out:

Scott Mckown (UK Electro)

Tom Doughty (lap steel player)

Swampcandy (US swamp blues)

Adrian Gautrey (Liverpool based multi-instrumental)

If you've not listened to Blind Faith, you really should too.

I always thought of him as rock though - I never heard him play pure blues?

Yeah, sometimes I am in the mood for really heavy rock blues.

Check this track out - I heard it live at the Hideaway about 10 feet from the stage and I was squirming in my seat with such delight I almost came haha!
