Music in general seems to be just wandering around in circles, so hopefully rhythm will make a real comeback. Personally, I'm about tired of uninspired noodling over 12-bar being served up as blues.

Last Remaining Old School Mississippi Blues Artists
Bluesman Mr. Johnnie Billington outside his Blues Academy in Lambert, MS
Bluesman RL Boyce at his home in Como, MS
Bluesman TL Williams at his home in rural Mississippi, near Lexington
Bluesman King Lloyd at his home in Centerville, MS
Bluesman Pat Thomas and son of bluesman James Son Thomas, at his Father’s grave. Leland, MS
Bluesman Rufus Roach in the fields in Tchula, MS
quote:Here are a few:
Since 2008, photographer Lou Bopp has been capturing the now elderly men who constitute the Mississippi Delta Blues musicians of a previous era. With calloused hands, worn faces and twinkling eyes, the blues artists are living remnants of a bygone time, one of juke joints and fiery soul.
"As a photographer and part of my overall DNA, I wanted to go where most do not, could not, nor dare not venture," Bopp explains in his artist statement. "Their stories seem embedded in their skin, scent, hands, stares; they are draped in history."

I like British Blues of the 60's: John Mayall, early Fleetwood Mac, Cyril Davies, Alex Korner, etc.

Roy Buchanan and Rory Gallagher are two of my favorites. Neither was ever mainstream, but if we're going to include mainstream artists, then I have to mention Johnny Winter.
