R.L. Burnside and Fred McDowell, etc.?

I've started to focus on this style in the last two months on guitar, but I'm looking for more influences.

Junior Kimbrough.

And although he's more associated with the "Bentonia style," I always recommend Skip James.

Junior is excellent as well.

Skip James, love him too..

I guess I should have been more direct. I'm looking for tunes that are not as mainstream as the usual players. I love them all, but I need some more.

Thought you guys might have some ideas down south.

I'll also dig into anyone that you think is a relevant modern dirt blues musician.

I don't care for over produced bullshite, looking for the dirty real shite.

Leo Welch.

Dude is legit, but he's probably 20 years past his prime on youtube.

Damn fricking shame.

This genre is dying and it makes me sad.
