 I know it is hopeless to compile a list of musicians that play blues in LA but I thought I'd see what I could do. I'm sure there are major blues people that are missing and there are musicians on here that wouldn't want to be classified as "blues" so I'll apologize in advance.  Leave a message in the forum or e-mail bluesmiller@earthlink.net with additions and corrections.
