Orphans: Brawlers, Bawlers & Bastards

Awesome 3 CD masterpiece. Contains at least one amazing blues album, quite apart from all the other stuff in there. Essential.
Dog House Music

He's become a legend since NYE, but he was great all along. An unquestionable blues record that avoids all the cliche
Bahamut
