    I thought that I would start a thread about Blues. Yermo started one about tunes to ride with and I thought since I like to listen to Blues while riding, why not a blues thread?

    So who are your favorite blues artists? Favorite blues songs?

    ZZ Top- One Foot in the Blues
    (Really hard to beat if you like ZZ or blues!)
