I play blues, both acoustically and electrically, on the guitar and harmonica. It was the Yardbirds for me... I was a big Beatles/Dylan fan and was getting into the Delta blues a little when I read stories of a certain, um, Clayton... Clifton... no, that's not it... British kid, played guitar in the Yardbirds and in the Bluesbreakers. Oh, well, whatever. "From The Cradle" is a smoking blues album by anyone, let alone a so-called "white boy", which is the only insult I can think of for a blues player that might be worse than "foreigner". Yes, Mudcat is a blues forum as much as it is any other kind. The key to getting on well here, from what I gather, is communication, sharing and the pursuit of support and mutual appreciation.
