    Best of all blues rock.

  23. When the Levee Breaks - Led Zeppelin

    Easily my favorite blues rock song. Love the harmonica, bass, vocals, guitar, and drum beat!

  24. Red House - The Jimi Hendrix Experience

    The most conventional blues track by Hendrix. The live version from the Miami Pop Festival is my favorite, but this track is hands down the best blues rock song.

    Utterly captivating from the first note to the last. It oozes more passion in one song than some artists show over their entire careers.

    This is way more bluesy than Voodoo Child and especially Purple Haze. It needs more votes.

  25. Ride On - AC/DC

  26. I Drink Alone - George Thorogood & the Destroyers

  27. Crossroads - Cream
