how could The Blues have a better name, or voice, than Howlin' Wolf?

How could there be a better song title than 'Killing Floor'?

not nearly as popular as many of the artists in this thread - I like him quite a bit________________________really good advice

"if you're going to the city you better have some cash

cause the people in the city don't mess around with trash

when you get up to the city you better lock your door

you know they'll take what you got boy - and then they'll ask for more

and if you stay up in the city child there's just 2 things I hope

that you don't take money from a woman - and you don't start messin round with dope"

they are all the best blues names
read a list and tell me how you can pick one over another?
Hooker, Blind, Muddy, Howlin'
Broonzy, Lightnin', Lead, Son
Burnside, Memphis, Bukka,
and while we're at it
Big Mama, Bessie, Koko, Mamie
Etta, Ma, and on and on

the Son House opening to this vid should be watched
i've heard this Son song through headphones many times
but i'm pretty sure this a first for me watching the video that shows the way he whips that instrument into submission.
he's flicking strings on that guitar as if sad fleas are attacking all the blues notes

I may have mentioned this before, but this video also displays the apex of men's fashion.

why doesn't the word apex have a direct opposite in the english language?
is it because it's a graphical term and the opposite of apex is actually the x-axis?
