Bruce Springsteen - the MTV Unplugged cd has a real bluesy edge to it - -especially Thunder Road - that song blows the studio version out of the water.

if'n you want jazz -- look for John Coltrane or Theloneous Monk they're a both really nice introduction to jazz (Jazz can be a little ADD, it's kind of all over the place -- and is definitely an aquired taste)
I agree with most of that, except that I think Aerosmith does a horrible job of making blues music.

Definitely seconding the Stevie Ray Vaughn though.
