There have been tons of blues and jazz players since the beginning of music. I have a huge list going all the way back to Robert Johnson to what is now Stevie Ray Vaughan and the great BB King. Who are some of you favorites?

I'm gonna stick with guitar players only, since that's my instrument:
I believe Stevie Ray Vaughan was the single best blues guitarist that ever lived. Period.
As for jazz, I'm not into it as much, but I always liked the melodic and bluesy players like Larry Carlton or George Benson and Earl Klugh.
