Jerry Douglas must be on just about every album I've got!! .... and Zillions more.Blues heroes from way back include Johnny Winter, Muddy Waters, BB King, Sonny Terry and Brownie Mcgee, Big Bill Broonzy etc. In recent years Vince Lee and the Big Combo have given immense listening/watching enjoyment.Best country rock band ever Lynyrd Skynyrd...'Sweet Home Alabama'.
