Thanks. I learned some of the names of the early blues recording artists back in the pre-Internet days. When YouTube came along, I was surprised to find that various videos existed of some of them. Interestingly, some of the most common videos were recorded in Britain or Europe just before the folk revival really took off in America in the early 1960s.
