Lots of killer guitarists out there, for my money Ronnie Earl has the best tone and style of any living blues guitarist.

I'm an avid fan of Stevie Ray Vaughan (God rest his soul), but have completely exhausted his library over the years. Anyone know of any blues guitarists (new or old stuff) that I should explore that would likely give me similar satisfaction in music style? I know that there is no replacement for SRV (in my book, arguably the best blues guitarist that ever lived), but I'd sure like to find some new artists for listening in 2015. Also a huge fan of Jimi Hendrix...
Why do the good ones always die so young!?! Heaven must be rockin!
Yep.......... Her LPs sound better than her CDs. My nephew, Phil Breen, is her keyboard player. We see them about twice a year when they are in or around the Philadelphia area. Wife tells me they are in Europe (primarily the UK this trip) for about a month. They spend about 50% of their tour-time in EU countries.How bout some Samantha Fish? Best viewed live, great stage presence.
The CD reviews on Amazon mention bad mastering, so check out YouTube, bunches there if you like her.
