I personally love stevie ray vaughan and so many other blues guitarists that just play with such personality and attitude. Do you like Blues guitar, and if so, what players do you love?

Although my personal leanings are a little more towards hard rock, I can appreciate the blues, partly because I was taught guitar by a jazz guitarist and much of what he taught me was focused on the blues. One of my personal favorite blues artists is Tinsley Ellis.

I love jazz guitarists. They know so much about great progressions, and I love just sitting back and listening to some very relaxing guitar music. I love Joe satriani, who actually learned a lot of his guitar knowledge from jazz guitarists.

I also love Joe Satriani. He was a huge inspiration to me when I was learning to play guitar. I also liked Gary Moore, who went on a whole blues odyssey. Two brilliant jazz players you should check out if you haven't already, are Al di Meola and John McLaughlin.

Man I love Eric Clapton and Buddy Guy. John Mayer does have some great licks that I hear when my brother plays it.

I very much like blues and jazz music very much. They are my favorites of band music. Louis Armstrong has all along been my favorite of the jazz music. I have a collection of CDs of the blues and the jazz music of the time.

Yes, I also love blues music!
I also enjoy Stevie Ray Vaughan's music as well as Kenny Wayne Shepherd's and many others. I'm usually quite happy just listening to whoever comes up on the blues radio stations! :)
I just enjoy how emotional, soulful, and rockin' the blues can be! :D
