Electric Blues Recommendations

My take: The guitar playing is better on Blues is King, but the singing is better on Live at the Regal. So is the atmosphere. I love them both, but if I could only have one of the two, it would be Live at the Regal.

Live at the Regal has better songs too, but they are both well worth having.  As is the live half of Live & Well, and any number of other recordings of BB doing his thing for an appreciative audience.  My favorite single live track might be the two-part single of Sweet 16 taken from the same date as Blues is King and added to some CD versions.

My 3 recommends, that I don't think have been covered yet:

Jr. Wells (& Buddy Guy), Hoodoo Man Blues

Magic Sam, West Side Soul

Albert King, Born Under a Bad Sign
