Top Ten Most Chilled-Out Blues Songs

The coolest, most laid-back Blues songs that just makes you melt into yourself where the problems of the world just seem to fizzle away like ice water on a hot baking tray. There are too many for me to remember and are in no particular order, because it's just too difficult. If there are any that you know of that I've missed, feel free to add; or vote for one that is already a favourite of yours :)
The Top Ten
1 Driftin' and Driftin' - The Paul Butterfield Blues Band

This is absolute perfection! (Well, almost; Paul's voice could be slightly deeper for me to call it "perfect") but this song in particular really makes me feel as though I'm floating (well, Driftin' n driftin, like a ship out on the sea...) It's just so chilled: the lyrics, the music (especially Paul's harp solo)... Oh my God...A-ma-ZING!

2 Bleeding Heart - Jimi Hendrix

This is gorgeous!

3 Lenny - Stevie Ray Vaughan
4 Blue and Lonesome - Rolling Stones

Amazing title track from their album.

5 Sloe Gin - Joe Bonamassa

Heartbreakingly beautiful.

6 You Shook Me - Muddy Waters
7 Since I've Been Loving You - Led Zeppelin
8 Baby Please Don't Go - Paul Butterfield's Better Days
9 Havin' a Real Bad Day - Taj Mahal
10 When the Lights Go Out - Jimmy Witherspoon
The Contenders
11 Love Me Like a Man - Bonnie Raitt

The lyrics, music and the sexy raspy tone to her voice is incredible.

12 Bad Luck - Eric Clapton
13 Dimples - John Lee Hooker

Is there a cooler Blues musician than this man?

14 The Sky is Crying - Elmore James

Such a good song.

15 Mannish Boy - Muddy Waters
16 When the Hurt is Over - Mighty Sam McClain
17 Last Night - Little Walter
18 Blues with a Feeling - Butterfield Blues Band

Wowww...very easy on the ears... it's difficult to describe just how these Butterfield tracks make me feel. I guess mellow is a good word. Just...really mellow... Butterfield is a natural high.
Thank you for adding.

19 Stormy Monday Blues - T-Bone Walker
20 It Hurts Me Too - Elmore James

Should have added this one too. The first time I heard it I was smitten.

I absolutely love this tune.

21 Divin' Duck Blues - Taj Mahal
22 Lonely Bed - Albert Cummings
23 I'll Always Remember You - Robert Cray
24 I Got a Mind to Give Up Living - The Paul Butterfield Blues Band
25 Sittin' Down Wonderin' - Dirty Blues Band
