T-Bone

Stormy Monday Blues (2002 release) by T-Bone Walker

10 tracks/blues

This is described by some as "California-style" which is interesting because T-Bone's roots are in Texas.

T-Bone had a large influence on Jimi Hendrix and B.B. King.

The Allman Brothers borrowed Stormy Monday from T-Bone, to the point that many think it was originally an Allman Brothers song. Heh.

T-Bone may have been the originator of the modern electric blues guitar sound.
