    No particular favorite tune but blues, r&b or rock...it's Big Jay McNeely. If you haven't heard of him you probably have heard him. King Curtis could also play the blues quite nicely check out his covers of "Soul Seranade"or"Harlem Nocturne".

    Today I'll say Shake, Rattle & Roll-Big Joe Turner

    I prefer Shaw by a wide margin.

    By the way, thanks for your kind words about my surgery the other day my friend ;)

    Edit:

    The thing about Glen's answers is that half the time I'm not sure I understand what the hell he's talking about....and yet it always seems meaningful and relevant.

    Take five- Miles Davis

    I guess that's not technically blues, but Ima say it anyways.
