Killer, I'd suggest that you visit Bob Koester's Jazz Record Mart on North Wabash Street in Chicago and ask to see their blues albums. You really have to see them to understand. I'm guessing it would take several days just to glance at the cover of each blues album in their store. As for how long it would take to actually listen to them all in order to pass judgement, who can guess.

Don't misunderstand, I'm ready to begin the task. I may not live to hear the last one but what a way to go. Of course we could just ask Bob Koester which five are best, he probably has listened to them all. <g>
