Robert Johnson,Muddy Waters,Willie Dixon,Ry Cooder,Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee,Blind Lemon Jefferson,Stevie Ray Vaughan,John Lee Hooker.All Brilliant.
Let's not forget the ladies -Bessie Smith,Mahalia Jackson,Koko Taylor and Etta James.Equally so.
Pick one?Impossible task but I never go a day without listening to my Ry Cooder tape.

Far too many greats to pick just one. Muddy Waters, John Hammond, John Lee Hooker, Sonny boy 1 & 2, Sonny Terry and Brownie McGee, George Thorogood and the list goes on and on.
I do prefer the very early artists like Robert Johnson, Mississippi Fred McDowell and Ruth Brown.
Can't go wrong with any of them.

John Lee Hooker is the true king. Koko Taylor is the true queen. nobody else comes close or they are just white wanna bes. Not even eric clapton can get that feeling. Nobody. No, not bb king. he is a nice man who made a good living. Only one man is the pivital blues artist -- John Lee Hooker.

Walter Trout. A phenomenal Blues artist. Even more amazing in concert.

Eric Clapton. Check out the album From the Cradle that's got some cracking Blues riffs on there.
Ray Charles as well
