Thanks from here, too, as I've been a fan of Junior and Buddy since someone put me on to the Delmark "Hoodoo Man Blues" LP back in the early 70's. Alas, Junior's gone, but Buddy's still out there putting on a great live show.

Well, I hear tell that Mudcat is a Blues and folk music website
[Though imo Blues is one sub-genre of folk music but that's a whole 'nuther story]

Here's a vintage clip of a documentary featuring Junior Wells, Buddy Guy, and Phil Guy:
