Next, a guy who's not the showman the others are but still puts on a righteous Blues time, complete with B-3. Ronnie Earl and the Broadcasters. Honed his chops replacing Duke Robillard in Roomful of Blues (q.v.). Mostly has led a band but selectively hires out.

A appreciation and discog: http://www.allmusic.com/artist/ronnie-ea.../biography and http://www.allmusic.com/artist/ronnie-ea...iscography << Outstanding discs for 10+ years on Stony Plain Records--that '07 Hope Radio piece also has a DVD available--due to the close-ups of his hands, it's near-essential for the new/learning player.
Some tunes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQFGpB7YlUc << nice workout for all involved
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uasRQpyk3Mk << He doesn't often work with a singer but this is glorious << Tough to cut Sistah Etta's take but this is a front-runner...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyjYYiab7C0 << Classic bluesy jazz piece, done right here. Lustrous and illuminating.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GzKJVx0X0x8 << From his newest CD, again with Diane Blue--a winning and winsome team. Slow Blues are the toughest--nowhere to hide mistakes.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNcqPoAIOtg << The kind of take on a song SRV learned from....which he freely acknowledged.
BONUS: 2010 full album--Spread the Love : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0R5lGbgQ3Q << His B-3 guy is a joy to listen to.
