TheDeltaBlues’s Infinite Playlist

Here Are the Albums on Steady Rotation in the Office.

Please note that in no way are we making the claim that these are the “best” blues albums, or must-haves, etc.  We seem to get a lot of requests from fans asking our advice on what blues album to buy, what we recommend, and so on.  Well, to us, blues, like any other genre of music, involves tastes.  Some are more inclined to enjoy some rocking Texas blues, while others enjoy the finger-picking sounds of Appalachia.

Therefore, rather than try to offer suggestions, we figured we’d just go ahead and post the albums we have in steady rotation playing at the office.  These are the albums we hear “shuffled” songs from on a daily basis:

Just a note, before all the hate messages come in.  No, this is not our whole collection.  No, we did not include or exclude any artist for any reason.  This is just what we are listening to right now.  Yes, we like other music.  Yes, we know some of you will think some of this is “not blues”.  No, we won’t edit the list to your liking.  I think you get the idea….

Enjoy!
