As a teen I was introduced to the blues through white artists like Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Clapton, The Rolling Stones, Led Zepplin, Aerosmith and George Thorogood who covered Bo’s Who Do You Love.
I’ve since become a big fan of the Blues and the originators of Rock and Roll.

BTW…What does the R and B stand for anymore in R&B music?…There doesn’t seem to be any Rhythm or Blues?
