GOAT

Saw him live once, in about 1983. Came on stage pissed off at the world for some reason, and promptly blew the top of the skull off of every person in the hall. Best guitar playing I've ever heard, before or since.

Albert King
Albert Collins
Both very influential in what we listen to now.

My best friend and I drove to the Warehouse in '70 or '71 (IIRC) to see Buddy Miles Express. Buddy didn't show and Freddie King played nearly 3 hours straight. We were completely gassed by his performance.

1. Albert King
2. Muddy Waters (early Muddy)
3. B.B. King

after that, in no particular order:
Hound Dog Taylor
Little Milton
Freddie King
Junior Wells
Willie Dixon
early Buddy Guy (cannot stand his later years)
Little Walter
T-Bone Walker
