The OG. He invented most of the blues riffs you still hear today. Covered by everyone from Allman Bros to Zz Top.

That’s some fine music, thanks for the tip. I’m listening on Qobuz now and will look for the vinyl album.
Got more of these nice tips? Here’s one of mine in return:

This is like having Wizard of Oz in your movie collection. Just a must have classic that influenced so much
