Bob,
You mention Freddy King. Man, he was the MAN. He was my favorite blues guitar player, bar none. If anyone wants to know how Eric Clapton learned to play the blues, listen to Freddy King. You will recognize it from having listened to Eric Clapton for the past 40 years. In fact, on the original Bluesbreakers album with a 19 year old Eric, there were at least 3 classic Freddy King songs on it.
I saw Freddy shortly before he died where he opened up for Clapton, and they came out and did a short set together after each of their own sets. They were basically playing in unison through most of the set, with some tradeoff of licks. It was quite a show! It was one of my all time favorite live performances that I ever attended.
