We are a truly international blues community here, and I am sure you will find out a lot about blues music from the other members. Enjoy the forum.

Then listen to some country and delta blues a la Robert Johnson, Son House, Bukka White, Mississipi John Hurt, and of course, the aforementioned Muddy Waters. If the Chicago sound is more your bag, check out Buddy Guy, Magic Sam, Junior Wells. Is Texas blues is more you thing then grab yourself some Stevie Ray Vaughan, Johnny Copeland, Johnny Winter, Jimmy Vaughan, etc. The best news is that even if you get the artists listed above and others in this thread, the fun doesn't end there. Right here on the BBF we have so many talented artists with really excellent blues music available that you cannot find in just any record shop.

Another good resource for history and research is All Music Guide Those will get you started, anyway. Welcome aboard. Enjoy!

Be sure to check out some of the great Blues Harpists, Sonny Boy Williamson 1( John Lee Williamson), Sonny Boy 2 (Rice Miller), Little Walter Jacobs, Big Walter Horton, Junior Parker, and of course my personal favorite, Paul Butterfield. Again these are but a few and they are all gone now (Rest in Peace) but there are many great players still out there doing their thing. Enjoy! Steve

Deepest Blue Posts: 6205 Jan 9 06 4:43 PM	Welcome Premieris, Happy that you joined us. Now our 'family' is bigger. Please take some time to wander around the discussions here on the Blindman's Blues Forum. I am sure you will find some that you will want to share in. Do not worry about your English skills. For many of us English is not the primary language, and for many others of us English is our language but we do not always use it correctly. But your English is not so bad at all, you made yourself well understood. I have an old 78 RPM phonograph record with Greek music on it, it sounds bluesy to me, the clarinet playing and the bouzoukia singing! When I get my hands on that record again I will write down the names from it to ask you if you know about the musicians.

Blues is a huge universe with different planets in it, I'm sure you've already figured that out from visiting the different sub-forums and their multiple threads here. I don't really have any advice as where to start from, I'd have to know where you come from musicwise. But from the What Are You Listening To thread in the Blues hangout subforum, you may find lots of suggestions, and maybe google-ing these different CDs will help you find audio clips on the web. Oh, and don't forget to check out our own members' music : they generally have a link to it in their signature. And believe me, some are very, very talented ! Rene Paris, France.

Deepest Blue Posts: 109 Jan 15 06 8:28 AM	Hey stranger.A fan of the blues is not a stranger. Where to start? There are 2 main styles of blues, accoustic and electric.The difference is 1 is amplified (guitar, harmonica)the other is not. As to the great ones here goes... Muddy Waters ,B.B.King,Eric Clapton,Buddy Guy,John Lee Hooker, Sonny Terrywith Brownie McGee,Johnny Winter,Stevie Ray Vaughn, the list goes on and on. The best idea would be to surf this site and to find a radio station that plays blues music as there is a lot of different styles. Your right the blues does touch the soul.You will notice that a lot of the music has a harmonica (harp) for me this is the heart and soul. If you like the sounds of the harp it is a great instrument.Its portable not expensive and you can really express your feelings. I would guess anyone here would be willing to help you. Sign me;"lost in the blues"
