    I’ve been enjoying some blues on the internet radio. If I were to want to sample some Chicago blues, where should I start?

    Howling Wolf is a predicatble choice but superb.
    Chess records have pretty good box set The Chess Story 1947 – 1975. Bit pricey to buy though.

    The Chess compilations are really good…

    eddiebaby- I’ve been looking at the Alligator label- worth a punt?

    Mud Morganfield, son of Muddy Waters, contemporary but still Chicago Blues. Keb Mo for a slightly lighter feel.
