Well, I agree with MrWalker and no, it's not because my bro and I would jam out in the back yard with him playing alto sax and me on the trombone to Cream, The Doors, 3 Dog Night and other bluzy '70's bands.
As MrWalker stated: Muddy Waters and BB King but I also would add the Mojo Priest, Steven Seagal as fairly decent blues guitarist. The king in my book will always Stevie Ray Vaughn, rest in peace!

I think Creed is a modern version of a bluzy 21 century rock band.

Yes they are. I love how they can have good music and still be funny at the same time. For those who have never heard them before here are a few songs...
Soul Man
Rubber Biscuit

Nice

Many people don't listen to much blues anymore. I personally dislike most "modern music", like rap and pop.

I totaly agree the music industry is so rubbish these days but there will be always people (like us) who support the less discovered and best types of music.

I think he's referring to the blues genre as a whole and not just a specific person/band. You got a lot of people that are into rap, pop, and all of that other stuff that annoys me. There are very few selective people that listen to blues and even classic rock anymore. Unfortunately, after awhile I don't think anyone will know what blues is.

I'm terribly sorry! I've seen so many users with that picture, but most are guys (strangely enough, eh?). I'm used to seeing the girls with ranks like Duchess, Lady, etc.
