Joe Louis Walker is another favorite of mine (I have SO many...) He is an excellent blues guitarist as well as a smooth vocalist. His newest album, 'Between a Rock & the Blues' showcases those abilities. Joe is originally from San Francisco and started out as Mike Bloomfield's roommate. (I'm sure he got plenty exposure to the blues there!) After Mike's heroin overdose, Joe started playing gospel music and came back to the blues in the 80's. He has played with lots of the blues greats, including Jimi Hendrix. I kinda like 'Blues of the Month Club', even though it is more of a mainstream song...It's got a good beat, and you can dance to it kinda song. I really enjoy all Joe's music, you really should check him out. He is a FINE bluesman in every way & destined to be a classic...
