Topic: Songs similar to Blues Deluxe?

Hey everyone, I'm just getting into the blues and just discovered Joe Bonamassa.

He is awesome and I particularly love the blues style of the song Blues Deluxe.

Can anybody recommend other artists/songs with the same playing style as Blues Deluxe? Particularly the intro? I just love it.

Tricky who plays similar to Blues Deluxe (fulltime)

I found the following in past couple of years

Guitar Shorty
Magic Slim

(If only I had 1% of Joe's guitar talent)

I wouldn’t think it’s a hard question but I was thinking on it and not as easy as I thought
  I am thinking if you like Blues Deluxe you should like the music of Walter Trout he has an extensive catalog and it is all really good

Brilliant! Thank you very much

I will check out Walter Trout as well

More suggestions welcome!

I'm not the best at that....but as someone who is more a rock fan than blues fan....i tend to put many of Joe's more "traditional?" bluesy solo songs into the same category for myself. I don't know how much it really applies to your questions as its more about how they make me feel / sound to me as opposed to soundi9ng same to each other or starting the same.
hopefully others will chime in

some that come to mind at the moment are
Joe's cover of So Many Roads
Long Distance Blues
No Good Place for the Lonely
Joe's cover of Tea for One
If Heartaches Were Nickels
Reconsider Baby
The Great Flood

Re: Songs similar to Blues Deluxe?

It's been mentioned before, but Joe's "Reconsider Baby " is right up that aisle, along with about 80% of everything Gary Moore ever did.
