Jules, I'm really not a huge fan of the Stones, but Billy definitely makes my very short list of all time favorite guitar players.

And before you step through the Pearly Gates, you have to chat with (not St. Peter) St. Jimi.

I have an original painting of Jimi in my room. 
  Red House is awesome.

So here you go, since you're not a Stones fan:P

Lightnin Hopkins, Lonesome Dog Blues

http://youtu.be/Ln1QTf3mqSc

John Lee Hooker, Tupelo

http://youtu.be/77pmWCpMNkI

Muddy Waters, Champagne and Reefer

http://youtu.be/oHowqKYSXNI

Or , The Same Thing (live version at some Boy Scout thing, it's amazing).  His album Hard Again is a classic. 

Leadbelly, Where Did You Sleep Last Night?

http://youtu.be/PsfcUZBMSSg

Mississippi John Hurt, I Shall Not Be Moved

http://youtu.be/tLc8YeXP8FY

Damn near everything Son House recorded, but especially "Preaching the Blues" ("I wanna be a Baptist preacher, so I won't have to work....")

http://youtu.be/Fd-Zy1w-8Lk

Bukka White:

http://youtu.be/Pkhj9z14TBo

Anything Alan Lomax recorded, esp gems like Belton Sutherland:

http://youtu.be/W6jjNRUqPxg

And I recommend this album for any blues lover, a field recording of early blues tunes with some mandolin blues, classic 'hollers, and some real gems:

Very nice:)

um... You've never seen Black Snake Moan?
It was widely panned by the critics. I happened to love it if for no other reason than the soundtrack and Christina Ricci running around half nekkid for 90 minutes.

Nope.

When I have a bevy of free time, I'll catch up, ha.
I've watched a LOT of movies.

Enjoy!

I told a woman to listen to this song once:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2pYkayadazY


The woman?  A mistress of a musician friend of mine.  Too difficult to be his friend anymore, especially when I would sit at his dinner table with his wife and knew what was going on.  Bet she did too.

Let me tell you about the other woman:

She was oddly jealous of me.  The guy?  Would never think twice about him.  Married/taken = off limits.  Plus, even if he were single, no thank you.  I had to befriend her because SHE would be at shows, not the wife.  Ugh

Found out they were 'together' a good 7/8 years.  There was one moment when he would have left his wife (great guy!) and she oddly refused.  That door opened and closed and 8 years later...

It's Valentine's Day.  The mistress is having a nervous breakdown. The married guy?  Gloated to me that he had sex with both his mistress and his wife, same day.  I just can't be friends with someone like that.

The mistress?  Loved the song, never took the advice/message.
It's true you know.

Somehow I think slashing someone's tires is not an effective way of changing one's true motivations, ha.

Plus, it takes two.  Usually a vulnerable woman and a selfish man or switch those identities to whatever gender.

I mean, come on.

My Dad's first wife cheated on him.
He had a no tolerance policy.  Back in the day it wasn't 'the thing' to divorce.  He divorced her immediately and took the kid.

Buh Bye

& F you.

Good for him!

You might find this to be interesting. I once had a management role in a small club in New Orleans and used to book him, before he "had a name" in the music business. He is the closest thing to the original DB masters that I have heard in the modern era. Lots of fun to listen to!

I respected him all of my life for many reasons, but that one just takes the cake.
Yes, I'm the same.

No reaction, just action and radio silence.

Yes it would. But first you'd have to find musicians of that caliber. Are there any left?

Good question.
