Not from the same show, but B.B. King's Live in Japan is my favorite of his albums. This clip isn't quite the same style, but pretty close. He's a little more jazzy.

Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown's "Pressure Cooker." One on of my all-time favorites.

Here's a few no one has mentioned:

Shemekia Copeland (daughter of the late Johnny Clyde Copeland). She has the best voice in blues today. Do NOT miss her live. Recordings just can't capture the power of her voice.

Joanna Conner - she can rock an LP

He doesn't get much love around here, but I think he's got style like no other: Jimmie Vaughn [YOUTUBE]qlofcl57aTY[/YOUTUBE]

Mick Jagger's favorite blues band - The Red Devils
