Dave Van Ronk on Pandora. Like blues? If so give him a shot. He was a white dude from New Jersey, but don't let that dissuade you from giving him a listen.

Comfortably Numb: Roger Waters + David Gilmour
YouTube, live performance at London's O2 Arena, May, 2011. Interesting light show typical of old Pink Floyd concerts.
And followed that with ...
Shine On You Crazy Diamond: David Gilmour acoustic
YouTube, live performance at London's Royal Festival Hall, June, 2001
This is a tough song to do acoustically, but if anybody can do it, David Gilmour can. Also, I think you need to be a PF aficionado (as I am) to appreciate the acoustic version. Dick Parry, who played tenor sax on a handful of PF songs back in the day, strolls out on stage during the last few minutes and plays sax on this one. (Rupert, you'd appreciate it).
This was earlier today, sitting in our southeast-facing sun room. Outside temp around 28 F. Inside temp with solar gain around 80 F. Lovely. Having New Years morning coffee with my beautiful and lovely wife, listening to Louis Armstrong station on Pandora. As you know, Pandora gets into your head and knows what else you'd like to hear. Today they did a good job. The "3 Louies" (Armstrong, Jordan, and Prima) as well as Ella, Etta, and Billie, Big Bands and every form of vintage jazz, blues and swing you could imagine, if you're interested in that type of music, and even some contemporary artists who dabble in vintage jazz, blues and swing like Madeleine Peyroux and Kevin Spacey (yes him, Beyond the Sea). Highly recommended.
Just got he debut album of the group Jungle.
Heard the single "Busy Earnin" on the radio. Loved it and looked it up. Their other music videos are all just simple things of just great dancing and that sealed the deal.

If you're even slightly a Gilmour era Floyd fan this is worth the time. Lot's of close-ups of guitar finger and footwork in HD. There are links from this page to other worthwhile Floyd HD videos.
Matt Koelsch and the Allies: Island Eyes (YouTube)
Matt is a singer/songwriter and Southern New England native, and performs in the Boston - Providence corridor, but also splits his time in SoCal clubs in LA and Orange County. (Anybody ever been to The White House on the PCH in Laguna Beach? He plays there occasionally. Cool vintage dive). He even did a tour in Australia last fall. Anyway he's one of those very talented performers with a great band backing him up, especially the fiddle player, but just hasn't gotten that lucky break yet to make it big.

One of my favorites.
