Top Blues Songs



This is a working list and it should be noted that it does not include much early acoustic blues, an area that almost requires a chart of its own.
These songs are not in any order of priority, rather, they are listed alphabetically.

PS It could change anytime soon too, as there are hundreds more songs I lerv to listen to!
